Hi' I'm Mick Barnes.
The purpose of these pages is to try and find old mates from my RAF
Police days. So if you served in the RAF Police you may find a
mention. If you see yourself in any of the photographs on these
pages or find yourself mentioned please feel free to contact me. If
you recognise someone, or a name, let me know. Or if you are in
contact with them get them to take a look at the pages. Apologies to
anyone that remembers me, that I don't mention by name. The old
memory isn't what it used to be. Apart form the RAF Stations
mentioned I also served at RAF Coningsby 1970-71 and Thorney Island
1974. I left the RAF Police in 1977 and went into the Hampshire Police. |
