He was a jet pilot in the RAF and had had a heart and lung transplant not long before he was killed.John Hoole went on to do History of Art and Architecture at the University of East Anglia (which is where I went and did the same course, though he came two years after me). He then went on to run the Barbican Art Gallery in London.Nic Willey and John Baxter (who had left Beaufort the previous year ) and I met up at Canford about 5 years ago for a reunion. I am not in touch with any of the others from my year.
