EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1963, we find ourselves transported back in time to an elegant and momentous occasion at the RAF Station in Coningsby, Lincolnshire. The station was being honored with the granting of the Freedom of Boston, a prestigious title bestowed upon organizations and individuals by the Borough of Boston in recognition of their meritorious services and contributions to the community. The room is filled with an air of excitement and celebration, as evidenced by the radiant smiles on the faces of the distinguished guests in attendance. Among them are Mrs. David Matthews, her husband's identity undisclosed, Squadron Leader James Griffiths, and his delightful young daughter, Wendy. Dressed in their finest formal attire, they mingle and enjoy the festivities, their joy and pride evident as they celebrate this significant achievement for the RAF Station. Squadron Leader Griffiths, a dedicated and respected member of the Royal Air Force, stands proudly alongside his wife and daughter, basking in the recognition of his unit's hard work and commitment to the town of Boston. The trio's warm and inviting expressions convey a sense of camaraderie and unity, as they share in the collective pride of this remarkable accomplishment. The evening's festivities are a testament to the enduring bond between the RAF Station and the community of Coningsby and Boston, a bond that continues to thrive and strengthen to this day. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the rich history and tradition that connects the military and the town, and the unwavering dedication of those who serve in the RAF.
