| OF "behind" the News |
Last Updated: Wednesday, 22 March 2006
|
Many of you may have been following the trial and recent death of Slobadan Milosevic. Some of the media pictures have shown glimpses of Nick Innell (S67-75) who is Chief of Security at The Hague. Nick says these are busy times for him but he hopes to be able to tell us more about his career and work at a later time.
(I understand that one picture of Nick alongside Marko Milosevic was in the International Herald Tribune for Wed 15th March. If anyone has a copy of the photo, we would be pleased to receive it).

| Honorary OFs - Who's Who |
Last Updated: Thursday, 2 February 2006
|
Many people, over the years, have been elected as Honorary OFs in recognition of outstanding support given to the Society or the School (inluding Brandeston Hall, of course). Now, after a collective racking of brains on the part of Andrew Currie, John Whipp and John Maulden, we've been able to compile a list of Honoraries going back to the late 1950s.
You can access the list via the main "OF Society" page or on the "Directory" page. Alternatively, you could click here.

| Help with 1936 Rugby 1st XV Photo |
Last Updated: Monday, 31 October 2005
|
UPDATE 9 Nov 2005 - the last player is confirmed as A J Brown. UPDATE 31 Oct 2005 - John Simpson (K32-36) and Ken Knight (K32-38) have now identified all but one name but have added possible suggestions. It is sobering to realise that 5 of the team were killed in action and appear on the College War Memorial.
We have received several photos from the possessions of the late John Randell (SOF President G54-63). One of the photos was of the 1936 Rugby 1st XV. Exactly why John had a copy of this photo is not clear. If anyone can assist with the names of the people in the photo then please email the Website Team.
I would guess that most of the team left Fram in 1937 or 1938, so about 1 year after Norman Borrett. The photo is inscribed with names but unfortunately they are indistinct but might help prompt someone's recollection. We will add names to the Gallery photo as we learn them.
