L to R: CO Sqn Ldr Bob Allen, Bob Rudd, Ken Senar looking back, Flt. Sgt. Duncan, Unknown holding bottle, Eric Bowden, Tom Balfour, Unknown - trying to escape an enthusiastic Xmas 1953 Party - maybe outside the back door to 93 Sqn Barrack Block?   Anyone name more names?   Thanks to Tom Balfour for owning up!   He sent me the following:   "I confess to being the drunk in the picture outside the 93 sqn block.   The story is that some of the lads pinched my cap and as there was no way I could afford a new one I had to pay a forfeit (or two) to rescue it.   Hence the state I was in.   Until now I had never seen these photos, nor had Jean but now she knows what I got up to 54 Xmas`s ago.   Ron Gray didn't think I`d own up, but as I`m still standing 54 years later it can`t be too bad."
(Thanks to Lofty Hope, Tom Balfour and Ken Sambrooks.)
