Hi Remit31

Many thanks for the heads up and info... it's very much appreciated... as the weather put pay to my plans for the first meeting, I'm looking forward to joining you guys on the 19th... with hopefully not a snow flake in site.

See you all soon.

As Remit31 has indicated, I will be at the Mildenhall Patch Meet on 19 May with my usual stock of Booster Club merchandise direct from the 67th Special Operations Squadron. I will also be selling Booster Club merchandise on behalf of the 56th Rescue Squadron.

I have managed to secure all remaining stock from the 56th Rescue Squadron Booster Club. Unfortunately the stock has been deliberately run down prior to the Squadron’s move to Aviano AFB. As a result, there are very limited numbers available. Prices have been set by the Squadron and I will have the following for sale:

Green Cotton 56 RQS t-shirts (£20) (sizes L, XL and XXL)
Nike Dri-fit 56 RQS t-shirts (£25) (sizes XL, and XXL)
12 x RAF Style 56 RQS Patches (£10)
20 x 56 RQS "Friends in Low Places" Patches (£10)
20 x HH-60G Silhouette Pen Tab Patches (price TBC)
7 x 56 RQS Beer Coozies (price TBC)
11 x 56 RQS Deneen Pottery Mugs (£25)

Due to the expected high demand and the very limited stock available, I will be serving members on a “first come, first served” basis. Also, to allow as many members as possible to purchase items, sales will be restricted to one of each item per member (no multiple purchases of the same patch, t-shirt etc).

This will be your last chance to buy UK-based 56th RQS merchandise so don’t miss out.

See you all on 19 May!

Sorry about the constant smell of butchered and cooked pig

You guys certainly know how to eat well
