Hampden Sqdn lineshoots No3

I was passed an original squadron line book many years ago. It sat on a shelf
until, having seen people share items on this forum, I decided to see what the reaction would be if a few lineshoots were posted. As Robbo said, it gives a feel of the time – personalities on a squadron etc.
