Obituary to Alexander (Sandy) Thomson – Bryan Hoare 307th

Sandy passed away the early hours of the 8th February 2023. Sandy started RAF life in the 306th and then he recourses to my entry the 307th, Clerk Secretarial.
He was a real character, one thing I remember was he would by a packet of cigarettes and then sell each cigarette individually and make a profit.  All through our training Sandy walked/marched with a limp, which he told me they operated on when he entered man service, not sure it was fully successful. 
Later in life after a car accident he developed Parkinson’s and was the first to have electrodes attached to his brain to stop his right arm from shaking. Sandy and I kept in touch for about the last twenty years although he became difficult to understand of late. Sandy leaves a wife Glenda and his son Spencer and family who all live near Edinburgh, Sandy’s village was named Bonnyrigg I think that’s a real Scottish ring to it. RIP Sandy.

A copy of Bryan Hoare’s AATS report September 1966 – January 1967. Bryan modestly comments: ‘It would appear that I was doing quite well, then what do you expect from an ex Secondary educated lad and an ATC Cadet Sgt. My school masters/mistress’s always said I could do better’.

AATS Report Bryan Hoare 307th Entry

                Eric Hills 307th I am formally SO595465 Admin Apprentice Eric Hills 307 entry RAF Hereford. I have mostly fond and a few  “not” so fond memories of my time at Hereford. My be able to find some photos , but am  moving house  at present on retirement. I served at RAF Hereford Sept 1966 – August 1967 and was posted to RAF Thorney Island on passing out, somewhat disappointed as I lived in Gosport before enlistment. In 1969 I remustered to Airloadmaster and served on 10 Squadron until leaving the regular RAF in December 1976. It was however, not my last aircrew experience. I flew with the Hampshire Police Air Support Unit 1978 – 1992 partime and fulltime.I was commissioned into the RAFVR(T) in 1977 finally hanging up the uniform in 2006 retiring from the Air Cadets as a Squadron Leader RAFVR(T).(Though I am still serving with  the ATC as a civilian instructor.) I would be pleased to contribute further to this association if I can and can be contacted on this email address initially With Regards Eric Hills. eric.hills@hotmail.com 307th Entry 50th Anniversary Reunion – Bryan Hoare Below is a link to messages on Face Book reference the 307th reunion at The Three Counties Hotel, Hereford over the weekend of 9th to 11th September 2016.
