See Below
Jan 1994 I flew from Riyadh in Saudi onto Indy for a day trip.
Had a great day and it was one of the highlights of my RAF Career.
I was decorated by General de la Billiere
(Commander British Forces Gulf War) for my actions in 1991 in
Desert Storm and love the British & American Forces.
Was very proud to stand alongside US Forces in the Gulf War.
You boys all do a great job.
Am now a civilian living in Ireland but would like to join your
Association as a 'guest'. If you see fit to grant a 'expatriate'
membership to an ex British RAF guy I would be
honoured to join you gentleman.
Kind regards Chris Anderson
