A THE Aldershot Well, perhaps John Barnwell wasn't as well known as the others in his playing days—though those ardent followers of First Division Football might well take me to task on that. My defence would be that, good though he was, he never, so far as I can remember, represented his country at the higher level. It is rather as a very successful manager that we tend to hear of John Barnwell these days—particularly when his team, Wolverhampton Wanderers, does something spectacular like taking the League Cup from Brian Clough's Nottingham Forest! 24431, Ext. 51G.) COVER PHOTOGRAPH CAPTAIN M. E. PARSONS with his crew Lance Corporal N. R. Langton in a Flying Dutchman off Tenby during the Apprentices College annual camp. The Flying Dutchman designed in Holland as the name suggests, is one of the fastest single hulled dinghies. It gained international status when selected for the 1960 Olympic Games —Prudier I.undic of Norway won the first Gold Medal in the class. Photograph by CSM Hosband. — LIFE THERE are many famous names, in almost all branches of sport, who have at one time or another been members of the Corps. In boxing there is Henry Cooper, in cricket Jim Laker, in football Bobby Charlton—and there is John Barnwell.
