Welcome to the
55th Entry Homepage.
n mid-January 1947, the quiet of the Buckinghamshire
countryside was invaded by about 500 noisy excited teenage boys.
Buckinghamshire did not change – it was used to these invasions!
After all, it had been going on for 25 years. But for 217 boys,
things did change – dramatically! Most of them were to be
transformed from boys into disciplined, highly trained, and
motivated young men,
many of whom would make the Royal Air Force their life career.
Others left the service after some years and made a niche for
themselves in civilian life. This web site is about these men, some
gone, but many of them still leading active retired lives in many
parts of the world. Over 55 years later, much wiser, a bit greyer, a
group of these “ex-brats” meet occasionally, sometimes with
wives, to chew the fat over old times. Thanks to everyone who helped
compose this website by sending photographs and stories.
