May I through your letters or reunion column appeal to those shipmates who served in "C" Class destroyers i.e. CA, CO, CH & CR vessels to join our association.
The 8th Destroyer Flotilla/Squadron Association was originally limited to those who served in the 8th in the Far East from 1945 to 1963. But we are now broadening our membership and are extending a sincere invitation to our sister shipmates to join us wherever they may have served.
We have a smashing reunion in Scarborough each September where you will be made warmly welcome. The joy on a shipmates face when he meets up again with an old comrade is always a pleasure to behold.
May I add that the ladies form an important part of the association and are equally valued and welcome.
Details and membership forms are available from me Cliff Longfoot, Chief Pressganger, 8th Destroyer Association 0151 226 3675.
