| Information or photographs – Fontainebleau |
My Father, George Carmidy served in the RAF Police. He was called up at 18 (April 1947) to do his National Service with the RAF police. He stayed on for an extra 3 years and was based at Fontainebleau, France, between 1949 and 1952. Sadly he passed away 3 years ago just before his 89th birthday. We have never found any photographs or paperwork from his time in the RAF police which we would love to see. Perhaps someone in your Association may have some information or photographs from that time. |

I am attempting [ very unsuccessfully so far ] to research my father who was as above.
He joined the RAF in May 1940 and I have the date that he went to the RAFP Training School, Police HQ from 24 MAR 1941 until seemingly 04 SEP of that year. He was A/Cpl in ’41 and then T/Cpl in DEC ’42 followed by Cpl in ’43 – the dates on the R.S. are rather hard to decipher. He was posted to various overseas stations and some A.M.E.S and ended in an Maintenance Unit in UK. I wonder if you can help in any way with a path [ apart from his record which I have ] to find out more about the postings and his Police Training. |

| Peter Horton | Hello, I’m writing this on behalf of a friend who is trying to find some information about her father (Peter Horton) who she thinks served in the RAF Police.
The information she passed on to me is as follows – he was born on 03-June-1929 at Maidstone, Kent . His service number she thinks was 2358694 and he served in the 1960’s. He served at the same time as a guy named William Crisp who apparently saved his life. My Uncles also served, their names are:- -Jack Horton- lived in Wuppertal Germany |

| ex-RAF Cpl (possibly with surname Barker) | I am researching an ex-RAF Cpl who received a gallantry award for animal rescue as a Police officer in 1957. His force is not yet established. He was also a qualified St. John Ambulance Officer again his division is not known. His medals include the WW2 Defence and 39/45 War medal. He also held a silver sports medal engraved ‘RAF Malta Command, Tug of War, 1945 Cpl Barker’
This is currently the only clue we have to identifying the man behind the medals. My request is for any assistance in identifying him, age, dob, service number etc. Thanks for looking. |

| Jim Cunningham | I served at RAF Machrihanish from 1971 – 1974. Jim was my best man when I got married in 1973 but he left the RAF in 1974 to join the newly created Strathclyde Police becoming a police officer in his home town of Ayr.
After a few years he left the police and became a financial adviser in the town. I last saw Jim in 1984 when he and his wife Anne and two daughters came to visit my family and I when I was at P&SS (SR) and living at Colerne. |

| Mark Burns | I’ve been trying to find my old friend Mark Burns who served as an RAF Policeman .
We went to Sacred Heart school in Redcar, Cleveland from 1979 to 1983, Mark was from Marske By The Sea, where he lived with his dad who was a civilian police sergeant and with his sister Sally. Unfortunately I heard that his mum had passed away. Mark joined the RAF Police I believe it would have been circa 1987/8. We eventually lost touch when I moved away from the area but the last time I saw Mark I think he was based at RAF Cottesmore. The only thing that I’ve heard about Mark over the years is that when he left the RAF he moved to Italy. I’m not sure if this is correct as it was an old acquaintance who believed that to be the case. My surname now is Welch but I have just taken early retirement from the clinical pharmacology industry to pursue my new career as a full time artist and would very much like to make contact with my old friend as I’ve always wondered what became of him. If you were able to help in any way that would be very much appreciated. |
