Commonwealth Day 2022 : Singapore 1956
Stop off in Singapore on the way to Operation Buffalo 1956
These photos were sent to us by David Coppin they were taken by his late father Bernard Wolfe
David pointed out that Bernard wasn't alone among the veterans of the tests in spending a bit of time in Singapore which was a stop off for anyone travelling by air out to Australia.
He went on to explain that there are not many photos, a couple of them are not very exciting and a couple are a little bit blurry, But they might have some nostalgia value to a portion of the veterans cohort.
Raffles Hotel where Bernard was staying.
An air hostess who was working for Bangkok Airlines. Whether she just happened to be staying at Raffles at the same time as Bernard, or whether she was a a hostess on a flight Bernard took, David doesn't know but suspects the former.

New Paragraph
David suspects the stop over at Singapore was one of the highlights of Bernard's time away for Operation Buffalo in 1956.
The last photo is Bernard Wolfe actually on Operation Buffalo, he was part of the Aldermaston AWRE contingent.
We would like to thank David for sharing these photos with us, I know he has many more from Bernard's adventures.
