This copy of the Outpost was issued in December 1941 and contains
a number of seasonal messages and a programme of forthcoming festive events.
One of the messages is from Captain WK Conachie of the Local Home Guard. The name
Conachie will be familiar to those of you with Shetland connections as the
family ran the main newsagents in Commercial Street, Lerwick, for many years.
Another notable event was the organising of a Christmas Party for local
children, a tradition which was resurrected after RAF Saxa Vord opened years
after the War ended. Left click on images to enlarge:l
