This is the story of a boy from a working-class background. It tells about his torment during his early years, the discrimination during his schooling leading to his truancy, then his big break with the RAF, which did not care where you came from. It also tells his many adventures as an airman to his discharge. After some calibration work, he joined British aerospace, where he flourished, becoming a senior training officer before transferring to be an in-country representative after a short time back in the UK. He came back to Malaysia to work: first, in aviation then in oil and gas. Finally, he retired there to live out his life.
