CHS - COLLEGE JOURNALS
KEY
RAF College press release celebrating the College's centennial. Owing much to Covid 19 restrictions, little more seemed to emerge throughout the rest of 2020.
In 2019, we created 'College 100 Memories', a selection of six separate albums paying tribute to the RAF College's Centennial, each volume rearranging College Journal articles into six broad themes: College Life; College People; College Fabric; College Training; College Flying; Evolution of Flight. Click on this graphic to access those tribute albums.
The majority of College Journals - those whose cover pages are shown - are in FlipBook format created by Mike Smith (91C Entry) from Journals kindly donated by a number of Cranwellians; 14 were loaned by the RAF College before the CA funded their reproduction ahead of conversion to FlipBooks.
Courtesy of Colin Hinson, we are able to link to four Pre-WWII magazines of 1 E&W School. You willneed to scroll down the landing page.
The versions with cover pages of CHOM were created by the CHS Founder. Originally, they contained only key articles, but through the helpful support of the IWM, RAF Museum, British Libraary and Cranwellian Ian Smith, we have updated these versions to include nearly all the articles and illustrations. As these versions are in compressed pdf format that can take a while to open, we have excluded advertisements. Their quality is not as good as the FlipBooks for a variety of data capture and processing reasons, but at least the historical content has been preserved. Full PDF duplicates of every Journal are also available by clicking the link at the bottom of this page.
This Compendium of Indexes will help you search for items of interest quicker than ploughing through each Journal. You can use the Cmd/Ctrl 'F' function to locate topics of specific interest and there are links to separate albums containing frequently recurring topics (e.g. 'Cadet Wing Lists', 'College Notes', etc).
