“Stumble”
by
Philip Pickford
2455 Members of the Winchester College community served in the Forces during World War II.
This figure includes 2370 Wykehamists, 16 Assistant Masters and 69 Choristers .
285 gave their lives as a result of enemy action, including 3 Choristers and 11 civilians.
Wykehamists such as Air Chief Marshal Lord Dowding, who headed Fighter Command during the Battle of Britain, Viscount Portal of Hungerford, Chief of the Air Staff, and Field Marshal Earl Wavell are all considered to have played vital roles in Britain’s defence.
