'JS Veterans Newsletter', number 284

Newsletter (4 pages) for Sainsbury’s Veterans (retired staff) printed and published by the Veterans Welfare Section and the Sainsbury Staff Association.

An additional sheet is inserted with a list of Veterans birthdays and golden wedding anniversaries in August (explained as due to an administrative error that meant the August birthdays were not correctly displayed in the July issue).
