PASSING OF DR. JIM REDMOND
From Tania Cochrane
I'm writing to let you know that my dad, Dr. Jim Redmond, passed away on Wednesday 12th February, 2014 at Leopardstown Hospital, Dublin. I would be most grateful if you would pass this info on to your members. As is often the case with families of Old Soldiers, we have learned more about our Dad in the last couple of days than we ever did through his lifetime. We would love to hear any anecdotes or stories anyone has to share.

Dr. Redmond was born in Dublin and during World War II was a rear gunner with Squadron No.35 in the Royal Air Force. Flying Officer James William Redmond, Number 179011. He moved to the then Northern Rhodesia after the war and at the break up of the Federation moved to Australia for a short spell. We moved to Gweru in 1963 where dad worked as a GP, first on the Railways and then in private practice. He was a Reserve with the RhAF and attained the rank of Squadron Leader during his time with them.
End
Our deepest sympathy to the Redmond family.
Thanks to Tania
