Hi Pierre,
I believe Johnny Rivaz took it down after the last op was flown.
That’s All Folks
What Next?
Johnny Rivaz?

July 1945
Johnny Rivaz, by taking down this precious artefact, has without knowing it kept this Mosquito Squadron operational forever.
This is an edited version of the scoreboard.
The connection finally worked, so happy to see this. I know I still have catching up to do, but I look forward to future posts.
Got a message you are now a subscriber.
I wrote you a comment about Flight Lieutenant Thomas’s nephew who helped me in my search for Eugène’s 33 missions.
I will post another article about F/L Thomas using the scoreboard so people can understand the symbols.
Thanks Peter and Pierre this is another Treasurer.
One day someone will send something related to George and your father.
This blog will live on forever.
The “That’s All Folks” table was framed and displayed proudly in my home for many years. My father was John Jacobs.
John Jacobs is seen here with his pilot.
