On Friday 19 September the Milford Probus Club post-lunch talk will discuss how the Cold War of the 1960s has uncomfortable resonances with today. While much of Britain embraced the “swinging sixties”, the threat from an aggressive Soviet Union was deadly serious. The Royal Air Force’s role in countering that threat included a formidable nuclear deterrent provided by Britain’s V Bomber Force, capable of being airborne in two minutes. One of the crew members is speaker Andy Richardson. Come and hear what he has to say. Lunch and talk just £32. Lunch is at 12.30pm (pre-lunch drinks from 12pm). Visit
