Lockerbie’s Syracuse Trust scholars Tristan Woolley and Joshua Halliday have been representing the town at early key events in the USA to mark the 35th anniversary of the downing of Flight 103.

And that has meant taking part in the university’s Remembrance Week which has the motto Look Back, Act Forward. A total of 35 students from Syracuse were on the ill-fated Pan Am jet when it exploded over the town on December 21, 1988, killing 270 people who were passengers and staff and 11 Lockerbie residents.
