Thanks to Paul Trumble MBE 3151683, far right on the back row, for this photograph of 12 Flt, B Sqd, in May 1957.
Paul says "The only time in my life that my surname has ever worked in my favour was when we were first let out of camp. Of course we all drank too much and returned worse for wear and quite late - past the time we should have returned. As we were hearing from those on duty what horrible things they were going to do to us I, with bravery fuelled by alcohol, flashed my ID card and said 'Look at the name on that' somewhat shaken they allowed us to go without further threats. The Commanding Office at Bridgnorth at the time was Group Captain Trumble, no known connection but those on duty weren't to know that!"
 
Thank you Paul for donating a copy to the collection of memorabilia held at the Bridgnorth Visitor Information Centre.
