Hi Mike,
I only knew him as Lennie but I would bet it is him.Benny Mills was a little old grey haired guy, looked one of the seven dwarfs and he worked on the 1/4 machines next to Les Truscott, right in front of the canteen stairs. He had an ulcer perforate at work one day and there was blood everywhere, it was an awful mess and he never came back to work after that.I don't remember anyone else, sorry.
Regards,
Charlie
