London Dinner, Friday 18th May 2018

The President’s Room of the RAF Club once again played host to the London OSBs annual dinner on 18th May. A total of 40 members and guests enjoyed an excellent evening, and tribute was paid to two former OSBs (William Leefe - Robinson and Sir Gus Walker) who served in the RAF with such distinction. The President, Peter Lever, gave a detailed account of the journey that the school had been on leading up to the re-opening in September, thanking all those involved for their continuing support. As usual, fond memories of everyone’s time at the school were shared as the evening wore on.
