Re: RAF Abbreviations
Hi Max,
Thanks for your input. I think we now have a good idea on the meaning of both abbreviations.
I must say, for me it's a fascinating document. It's a great insight into the day to day activities of early Bomber Command.
Learning all the time
Cheers,
Wayne.

Thanks again
Wayne.

RAF Abbreviations
Hi all, I have been looking at the RAF Feltwell Log for August 1941, (a big thank you to Max) and there are two abbreviations constantly recorded. They are S.O.O. and also S.O.R.D.O.

Re: A subdued Christmas here.
Guy,
Sorry to hear about your sad losses
Things do get better, slowly, and as Steve and John said, family and friends do help.
All the best wishes for 2014, and as we say here in NZ, Kia Kaha. (Stay Strong)
Wayne.
