Jack Pattle, who was a military magistrate in South Africa, went off to fight against the Kaiser's troops in South West Africa. It was four long years before he was able to see his children again. #2 The brothers were sent to the local school in Keetmanshoop, and for the first time in their lives, they were able to mix with children of German and Afrikaans descent. They were both given pellet guns, an indispensable part of a South African boy's equipment. #3 Tom was a thousand miles from home, but he never felt homesick. He settled down quickly and made a lot of friends. He studied conscientiously, played games with gusto, and at the end of his first term was able to report that the school and the climate seemed to suit him. #4 Tom Pattle was a student at Grahamstown High School in 1931, when he decided to join the South African Air Force. He was invited to attend an interview at Air Force Headquarters in 1933, and was rejected. He began a course at a local commercial college to brush up his English grammar and other skills.
