THE r.a.a.f fire SERVICE 
JANUARY 2010
With the ongoing help of Greg Voss, Pat Mildren, Peter Hancock, Graham Mineall, Greg Hughes and many others we hope to build a comprehensive history of the R.A.A.F Fire Service.
GUYS, YOUR HELP IS REQUIRED AS MANY OF THE LISTED COURSES HAVE LITTLE OR NO INFORMATION and a photo of Basic Course 24 would be greatly appreciated.
Please email your contributions - either text or jpeg - to the contact address shown on this page.
An individual history is welcomed from members, ex-members or families of deceased R.A.A.F Fire Service personnel. Please keep your resumes short.
