I could not help but notice how extensive the list is becoming of those who have moved on.

When seeing Class photos, and knowing that age and illness are the determining factors:
I have a photo of my fathers WWII Empire Air Training class of navigators - I believe that Dad was the only one in the class who survived the war.

=; I must confess that when we lose someone close to us, both in age
and circumstance, the mind does tend to wander to one's own mortality... :-k

Yet I must say, that to have only lost a total of five (out of 73) from the
13th MOBI Intake has been fairly amazing... :thumbright: (2 through health/ age
related illnesses, 1 by his own hand, 2 at the hands of third parties...! :shock: )

.......... 13th MOBI Intake of Naval Artificer Apprentices - July 1962

The 14th MOBI Intake following ours has not been nearly as fortunate... [-(
