Bandy Joyce was Band Master. I remember Tony Belcher (my successor as Drum Major - I thought he was a euphonium player) and Graham Bell (Broughton House25). His brother, (Bell 11 as Charlie Wood called him,) real name Eric, was my best mate. He played cornet and bugle. A few other names of that era come to mind - Jack Biggs, Preston, Whinney, Eggledon, Brookes (Broughton House 50), Twinn, Hugo, Dennis Aysteran (F.Horn), Cawley, Dennis Bromhead (Base Drum), R. Harrison (Eb Base), Watts (Drum behind me in the photo), Cornthwaite (Drum on my left), Sandford (Trombone). I have good memories of the band being the interval attraction at the Poole speedway when Ken Middleditch was the star rider.
The Officers I remember from Parkstone - The Captain was Felton, Commander's nickname was "Snowy", Charlie Wood was the Broughton House Master, Busby was the Howard House Master, while Butcher was Aranmore House Master, Sid Pointer - Sigs, the Padre was John Slater (pictured in your gallery).
I served in the Royal Navy from 1956 - '67; went to Australia in '72 and now live in New Zealand. I called in at PSTS on August 21st this year on a visit home - had a look around and found my initials on Broughton House wall.
I was sorry to read about Paddy Carson he and I both came from Macedon in Northern Ireland (DBH).
Look forward to hearing from anyone from Parkstone.
