Reg ‘Jimmy’ Woolgar was born and schooled in Hove. He began working life as a valuations assistant and was training to be a surveyor, which was interrupted when, in December 1939, he joined the RAF. Although he had aspirations to become a pilot, he trained as a wireless operator/air gunner instead. His wireless operator training was carried out at the wireless training school, RAF Yatesbury. https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/files/original/87/849/PWoolgarRLA1609.2.jpg His air gunnery training on Fairy Battle aircraft was conducted at RAF West Freugh. On 15 November 1940 he was promoted to sergeant and posted to No 10 OTU at RAF Upper Heyford. https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/files/original/87/845/PWoolgarRLA1601.2.jpg Initially flying Anson aircraft and then Hampdens with C Flight, he had his first ‘Lucky Jim’ moment, on 6 February 1941, when his Hampden aircraft was forced to crash land in a field near Cottesmore, in Lincolnshire. The aircraft was written off, but he and the pilot survived with minor injuries. At the end of operational training, instead of going directly onto operasations, he spent the next 5 months as a screen operator instructor. Eventually, on 1 September 1941, he was posted to 49 Squadron, Hampdens, at RAF Scampton https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/collections/document/852 where his very first operational trip (described as a baptism of fire) was to Berlin. With headwinds going out and coming back, and nil visibility, it was likely the crew would have to bail out. Fortunately, the skipper found a break in the clouds and the aircraft landed wheels down in a field near Louth. The aircraft had to be recovered back to base, transported by road, on a low loader. On another occasion, on a mine laying operation to Oslo Fjord, his aircraft was peppered with anti-aircraft fire, it returned to base with 36 bullet holes in the fuselage and mainplane. A bullet had also passed through the upright of his gun sight while he was looking through it, whilst another tore through his flying suit. The nickname ‘Lucky Jim’ was beginning to stick. In February 1942, on an operation to Manheim, the port engine, hit by flak, cut dead. Despite jettisoning all superfluous weight, which unfortunately included all the navigation equipment, the aircraft rapidly lost height, and the pilot ditched the aircraft in the English Channel. Whilst the crew had struggled to keep the aircraft airborne, (on a single engine), it had steered on a massive curve and unbeknown to them was headed down the English Channel, before it ditched. The crew scrambled out onto the wing and managed to inflate the dingy, then had to cut the cord attaching the dingy to the aircraft using a pair of nail scissors, moments before it sunk. In the water for hours, the crew thought they were drifting near the Yorkshire coast, but were rescued by a motor anti-submarine boat, much to their surprise, near the Isle of Wight. Operational flying was intense, Reg would feel wound up before take-off and there was much apprehension on the way out to the target. Often, they flew through intense flak that was sometimes so close they could smell it. There was always a sense of sense of relief once they came away from the target. In between operations, each day was treated as it came along with many off-duty hours spent socialising in the local hostelries https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/collections/document/853 After his first operational tour (he completed two) he was commissioned and became gunnery leader with 192 Squadron in 100 Group. After the war ended, he signed on for an extra two years and was posted to Palestine as an air movements staff officer. Luck was again on his side when, one day, he was on his way to an Air Priorities Board Meeting at the King David Hotel when the hotel was bombed, resulting in many army and civilian casualties. After a short tour in Kenya, as Senior Movements Staff Officer, he returned to Palestine flying with 38 Squadron until August 1947. In his flying career he amassed over 1000 flying hours. For services to his country Reg was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/collections/document/858 He was released from the RAF in September 1947. Initially employed as an assistant valuations officer, he studied to become a Chartered Surveyor and secured a job as a senior valuer with the City of London. He later became the planning valuer of the city. After 14 years he was made a partner at the firm St Quintin Son and Stanley.

This information was received too late for an appropriate adjustment in the settlement of the Estate but, further monies having now become available for the benefit of the estate, necessary adjustment has been made. I am accordingly to forward a payable order for £4.9.0d (Four pounds, nine shillings) in final disposal of the matter. I am, Madam, Your obedient Servant, [signed] Miss Annie Tetley, 4, Buckhold Road, Siddall, Halifax.

Ambrose released from Service Basil George Ambrose was born on 24th June 1923 in Derby Street, Reading, the youngest of five children. He attended Wilson Road School near Reading’s football Ground.  In 1937, when he was just 14 years old, he left school and took up employment as an apprentice turner at the Pulsometer.  He was paid five shillings a week, half of which he had to give back to pay for his indenture training. Although engineering was a reserve occupation, on 6th March 1942, he was able to join the RAF as a trainee turner.  On completion of training, he passed out as a Leading Aircraftsman and was posted to RAF Sealand.  Whilst there, he applied, and was accepted, for Flight Engineer training at St Athan. His first ever flight was memorable in that he took the opportunity to join an old family friend (a test pilot at St Athan) who was taking a Beaufighter up for an air test.  While airbourne over the Bristol Channel he witnessed a long line of merchant ships, all nose to tail as far as the eye could see, the ships were readying for the for the D Day landings. On 7the June 1944, he completed his Flight Engineer training and joined the HBCU at RAF Swinderby, before moving on to the Lancaster Finishing School at RAF Syerston.  In September 1944, Sergeant Ambrose and his crew, now fully trained, joined 467 Squadron (RAAF) at RAF Waddington.  On just his second operational flight, tasked with destroying enemy field guns in Holland, his aircraft had to drop below the cloud base at just 4000 feet.  Almost immediately, the aircraft alongside them was hit by ack-ack and went down in flames.  Basil’s aircraft returned safely, but the mission ended in failure. Just over a fortnight later, his first ever night operation proved even more eventful, one they were all very fortunate to survive.  En-route to Brunswick, a fire in the cabin set alight the blackout curtains surrounding the pilot and navigator.  Basil had to use two extinguishers to put out the fire.  The events caused significant delay and at their estimated time of arrival on target, they were still approximately 40 miles away.  By the time they got there all the other aircraft had gone through and were on their way home.  Basil’s aircraft was now completely alone over the target and although they were able to drop their bombs successfully, the aircraft was illuminated by a whole cone of search lights from the ground, plus an enemy fighter aircraft was fast coming in from the port side.  The skipper took evasive action by immediately putting the aircraft into a 5000 feet dive and Basil found himself pinned to the cabin ceiling by the ‘G’ force; conversely when the aircraft pulled out of the dive, he was forced down to the cabin floor.  The evasive manoeuvre was repeated one more time before they managed to lose the searchlights and the fighter.  The trip home was conducted at low level without further alarm.  In all, Basil and his crew went on to record thirty operations together.  After 467 Squadron, Basil was commissioned as a Pilot Officer and was posted to 617 Squadron in April 1945.  He was never to fly operationally again although with 617 Squadron he served for a brief period in Digri, India.  Basil reached the rank of Flying Officer and was demobbed in 1948. Basil returned to the Pulsometer and finally qualified as a turner.  After a short period working in Birmingham, he settled in Reading with his wife Jean and two children.  He continued to work in engineering, eventually moving into the engineering safety field.  He retired from his final position of Chief Safety Advisor for Greater London Council in 1981.<a href="https://www.getreading.co.uk/news/local-news/war-veteran-still-swing-90-4802178"></a> Chris Cann Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
