At the 40s and 50s Luncheon in 2012 Tim Brennand (Carpenter 1954)
suggested that we should capture some of the amazing life stories
of OAs. Tim has worked tirelessly to produce what is, we think, an
extraordinary snapshot of life during an interesting and turbulent period
of the world's history.
We have just produced and printed the first edition and we hope this
will inspire other OAs to send in their memories for the next editions.
Our plan is to update the publication every few years.
If you would like to receive a copy, we are more than happy to send this
to you for a small charge of £10.00.

Can You Help?
Following on the theme of Remembrance, Alison Mason, the Archivist,
would be grateful to hear from anyone who has knowledge of apmason@kings-taunton.co.ukwho lost their lives post World War II. The OAs can
have been members of any armed services not just the British services
but should have been active and not retired at the time of their demise.
