1942

Donald George Allan


Don insists the girls call him "Fuzz" --- whether this refers to the wave in his hair or to the dust that covers his Plymouth we do not know.  Don was born in Hamilton on March 8, 1920, and attented Central Collegiate Institute in that City.  From there he went to Parks Air College in St. Louis to study aero engineering, and later was radio operator for the American Airlines in Canada.  He reached the zenith in his aviation career, however, when he enlisted in Hamilton on June 17th.  His distinguished (?) bearing as our right marker stamps him as an ex-member of the 1941 Exhibition Squad.  Don lists his hobbies as golf, hockey, tennis and gals --- however, we would add snowballing (remember that 10%) and drooling over "True Confessions", "Love Stories" and "Range Romances" during signals classes.
