RAF ELY Hospital 1950''s Reunion

We are holding a Reunion for the servicemen (Regular & National Service) and civilians who worked at RAF Ely Hospital in the 1950's. My Dad did his National Service there in 1953-1954. We are having dinner at the Lamb Hotel on Lynn Street in Ely on Saturday 26th September. There is usually about 20-25 of us and you would be most welcome to join us and share your memories of this time. If you'd like to come along please ring the Manager of the Lamb Hotel stating that you wish to attend the 1950's Reunion being organised by Mr. Greig. We'd be very pleased to see you. (The Lamb is on the left hand side in the photograph)
