GRAVESEND E.F.T.S. (1939)

Instructors (Front Row L to R):
Rathrorne, Higgins, Oliver, "Self", Kirchner, (C.I.) Tatnall, Hymans, Stanard, (C.G.I.) ?, Jamieson.
My pupils were Delafield, Martin, Bramah, and Watts.
[Derek Martin (fourth from the left, top row) resigned from the R.N. in 1966 as a Lt. Cdr. He was shot down over Norway and, later in the war, was a P.O.W. at the same camp as me - Stalag Luft III, Sagan. He now lives in Devon. His uncle, who I also met at Gravesend before the war, was my A.O.C. for a short while.]
