Head’s stars and stripes plan
A headmaster devised a new punishment plan
where pupils were rewarded if they behaved well and punished if they did not.
They got a star for good work and a stripe for bad behaviour. Four stripes
meant a caning.

Combined Cadet Force and irresponsible motorbike riding mentioned on the same page, makes me think of the movie If.... and its very big caning scene.
ReplyDelete617 Squadron "The Dambusters" is now based at RAF Marham, but in 1953 Flight Lt Corduroy would probably have been involved with the B-29 Superfortress aircraft on loan to the RAF.
