This seems to be turning into something of an aviation blog but after an agency reunion that unluckily I couldn’t attend I’ve been in touch with fellow one-time Burson-Marsteller director Ray Palin who sent me this interesting picture taken recently at the old RAF station at St Mawgan, Cornwall.
It was there that Ray was an electronic officer with 201 Squadron flying Shackletons. Here he is at St Mawgan ‘ about fifty years after my time’ in front of the tribute machine at a recent Shack reunion.
Ray’s view now? ‘ Did we really fly in those crates?’ And adds, tongue in cheek: ‘ Where did we get such men?’ Any other old Shack hands out there?
