I am compiling two books for publication called 'Gunners' A History of the RAF Regiment in Photographs, and 'Gunners Tales' The contents will be entirely of contributions from RAF Regiment veterans. All photographs and tales, will be acceptable for review and possible inclusion. All contributors will have at least one or more photographs included. Don't worry about spelling, grammar etc. as the book will be proofed and corrected before printing. I will set up a Book Store on-line where it can be bought and I also hope to sell on Amazon and UK book stores. All design and illustrations will be carried out by myself. If you have a photograph you think would be ideal to incorporate into the cover illustration please send me a copy scanned in at hi-res i.e.. 200 to 300 dpi

If you are interested in having your 'story' included contact me by e-mail or just send your story for review and inclusion. If possible also send 1 to 3 pics to be included one of them being of yourself (if possible) This is a facsimile of the cover I am working on. The roundel will stay as it will attract buyers who are interested in the RAF. The soldier silhouette is where the final photo will be (preferably a silhouette). The background may have a different sky. If you are contributing and you have any reasonable suggestions concerning the cover let me know. A final draft of the cover and back will appear on this page when finalised

"UPDATE"
I have now completed 40 pages of 'Gunners. A History of the RAF Regiment in Photographs'
Many thanks to all of you who have contributed your stories, photographs and ephemera so far.

NOTE: Photographs or similar items must be scanned at 200-300dpi or no lower than 150dpi. I would prefer 300dpi if poss.

If you are unsure whether to participate in either book, I can tell you, you will wish you had when they are published !!!

Your tale can be as long or short as you like.

Your story can be submitted in word or similar or just in an e-mail. Don't worry about formatting I will do that. If you want to submit on a floppy or CD let me know and I will give you an address to send them to.

The minimum of personal details needed are name and dates of service. If you want to add more it is up to you.

Relatives or decendants of former Regiment airmen can also contribute

If you were in an RAF trade attached to a RAF Regiment unit (however tenuously) you are welcome to contribute your experiences.

I expect the book to be between 150 to 250 pages (not sides) But that depends on the number of contributors, pictures and length of stories. There is no limit. Obviously the more content the more interesting it will be and therefore will appeal to a wider audience, and sell much better.

Requests for contributors will appear in Service Pals on TV channel 4, various web sites and the local press. I hope to get an article printed in the local paper too.

If you have any questions contact me by e-mail.

Yes, it is 'FREE' You only pay for a copy of the book.

Royalties will be shared between contributors.

NOTE: Images offered for inclusion must not be someone else's copyright!

I will add more info when necessary
