From "A General for Peace" Leonard V. Johnson (1987), Referring to the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan -
" Sunnyside Beach attracted airmen from Prince Albert and the girls followed. The airmen all wore the rough blue serge of air force battle dress, with wedge caps and a
white flash conferred prestige and advantage in the competition for girls. Soldiers and other lesser men often spread the rumour that
it designated a carrier of venereal disease."
