It is with sadness that I report the passing of Capt (Retd) Victor Finch AAC, (Vic), on 29th March 2018 aged 79.
It is believed Vic was in boy service then enlisted into the REME to train as a Vehicle Mechanic transferring to aircraft in 1961. After completing his Articifer Course in 1967, he moved to 131 Flt RCT, 669 Sqn AAC, Wildenrath, Germany in 1968. He was posted to 657 Sqn AAC Soltau, Germany in 1975 and then 12 Flt AAC, Wildenrath in 1978 as a WO1 (ASM).
Vic was commissioned into the AAC in 1980 rising to the rank of Captain in 1982. He was Adjutant with 660 Sqn Hong Kong between 1982 – 1985 and 656 Sqn Netheravon in 1985. This was followed by a move to 666 Sqn, Netheravon in 1986 as a 2IC. Vic Retired in 1990.
The funeral will take place at 13.45 on 4th May 2018 at the Small Chapel, Southampton Crematorium, Bassett Green Rd, Southampton, SO16 3QB.
Our thoughts are with Vic’s family and friends at this time.
