Merthyr Imp 729 Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Hi Stevie I was at Blue Bell Hill school until I left, aged 11, in summer 1961, so I just missed you. I expect some of the same teachers were still there in your time - headmaster Mr. Leigh? My last year I was taught by Mr Lowe. Somewhere else on this site you'll find one or two memories of the school, including a class photo I posted taken in 1960. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jill Sparrow 10,305 Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 I've just spotted a George Johnson, living in Lincolnshire registering as a member. Are you George 'Johnnie' Johnson, bomb aimer with 617 Squadron, by any chance? Long shot (no pun intended) but if so, this site is honoured to have you as a member. If not, a warm welcome all the same. We look forward to sharing your memories. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,464 Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 And Jill's post prompted me to look at all the people who've registered here over the years with the name George XXXXX. There are 10 others; 7 never made a post or returned after the day they registered. I hope the new George - famous or not - turns out to be an exception to the rule.

Jill Sparrow 10,305 Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 Just me getting excited, CT. The Dams Raids have always been a particular interest of mine. I think that particular George Johnson is now the only surviving crew member and I believe he's domiciled in Lincolnshire. We would be honoured indeed! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
