Hi guys, I'm very new to this computing game and stumbled by chance on both site and subject. Lt Pabichs' R/O George Solomos is a dear friend of mine for the past 15 yrs or so living in south_east London. I have alerted him to your site and will leave him to tell his story. Maybe i'll get a bit of peace now as he's  been itching to find you guys ever since I first met him!! Keep up the good work, these guys should never be forgotten.
