One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.

Woolley,
thank you for sharing the snowball photo, it is a lovely item. You can bet the poor chap with the camera "got it" once the photo was taken. Except from the lad on the right who is glued to his cup of char.
On the original Squadron photo, I dedect an 'X' by the man extreme right on the wing.
Was this your father? - and is he in the snowball group?
Cheers
Dave

Love and kisses Polldoll,  :-* :-* :-*
I was just a bit concerned about my mate Scrimnet going off the rails. Years of sniffing polystyrene cement can do odd things to a chap.

He's being the perfect gent and helping me  with my research !!!! ;D ..  Meanwhile ... there is an arrow pointing to the last man on the wing ( right wing as you look at it ) and also marks, pointing  to 7 or 8 men to his left ... were they all mates !!?

Looks like we are both going to end up with bad eyes Poll.  I've started on the larger version as well, but I'm going to keep you all in suspense and won't post it until it's finished.   ;D ;D

I will of course email a full size one to you Woolley.

Cheers

Have to say what a difference working on the full scan is...the detail that has been preserved is brill, makes my job a lot easier!!!
