Photograph of Stanley, a friend of George Walton, 1944. This images features on page 180 of 'On the Red Hill' where Mike writes about Stanley "Tall, slender and confident, with slicked-back hair, clipped moustache and a signet ring on his little finger, he looked like a classic wartime spiv, despite being a vicar's son from Bournemouth".
Reg Mickisch and George Walton met in 1949 and were together for over 60 years, passing away within a few weeks of each other in 2011. Their story features in Mike Parker’s 2019 book On the Red Hill.
