Stand Easy! Is a light-hearted conversational recollection in quasi diary format of events between my conscription into the RAF in 1949 and demobilisation in November 1951; events that played a significant part in shaping my existence.
Enlisted men either enjoyed or hated their time in the forces.
I loved every minute of it (even the scary bits…)
It taught me self-discipline, self-reliance, man-management, and the value of an old shilling.
I went in as a boy, came out a man, and still retain fond memories of my time in the RAF, some sixty six years on since I was conscripted as a raw recruit.
