Well done, gentlemen.

We remain in your debt.

I worked for Ace Lawson in the very early 1960’s (1960-1961) when I was stationed at RAF Chicksands England. He was a Master Sergeant or Senior Master Sergeant at the time. He retired to California (Los Angeles area) when he left England. I had heard that he passed away in 1995 from complications of Alzheimer’s. He was a great man and loved by all of us young troops that worked for him. He used to enjoy picking up old cars and fixing them up. I bought a 1935 Singer Le Mans from him. He used to regale us with his wartime stories. I never did try to look him up as I remained in the AF until 1979. I regret that I never tried to contact him during my time in service and afterward. God bless him and may he rest in peace.
