Dec. 12, 1972 - White Christmas Guaranteed For The RAF At Goose Bay: At Strike Command RAF Goose Bay, Labrador, where the average daily temperatures at this time of the year is minus 25 deg F. snowfalls are very heavy and Christmas for the 70 men will definitely be white. The Bay is now ice-bound, and as there are no roads of railways, the only way out is by air. Naturally there are no shortage of winter sports, including ski-ing ice hockey and curling, and according to Wing Commander K.L. Lewis the station is the most sought-after RAF overseas posting.
