Hi Dave.
regarding the letter you received about Alfred Keen,I knew a boy by the name of Keen during my years at goldings, he was already in the tinsmiths shop when I went into shop in october 1942 and left goldings 1943 or 44 I never knew is first name his nickname could very well be buster as he was a bit of a lad and had quite a bust up with Mr de Boeck who punched him and gave him a bloody nose Keen then went off to report him to the Governor with Mr De boeck chasing after him he never came back to the tinsmiths but shortly after went out on a job, I remember his best mate called Edwards also put in a complaint to the Governor and I'm pretty sure he left the same time as Keen.
During the war one could volunteer to join up at seventeen and half instead of being called up at eighteen so he could have gone to the far east and been taken prisoner.
