The Gremlin and other documents and photos

The Gremlin

The Gremlin was the ‘official magazine of HQFTC’ and had a foreword by S/L Draper the camp CO. It was intended to cater for the finer things in life and, all-in-all, was a wonderful record of the zeitgeist (and publishing facilities) of the time, probably around 1949.

Since it was not dated or indexed, it is not possible to know whether this was the first and only one, or whether there were others later.
