D. R. W. Stronge

(???? – )

D. R. W. Stronge or possibly Strange was a UK fan from Colwyn Bay in Wales active in the 1940s. He was a member of the British Fantasy Society (BFS).

His brother, T. W. Strange (or Stronge), was a member of the BFS but while serving in the navy in the Mediterranean during the Second World War he was having problems receiving mail. He therefore transferred his membership to his brother who was in the army and stationed on the Gold Coast. D. R. W. sent in a subscription of 7/6 (seven shillings and six pence, three times the going rate) as he regarded this transfer as 'skulduggery on the part of himself and brother' although British Fantasy Society Bulletin editor D. R. Smith considered it 'a most sensible arrangement'.

T. W. is referred to in the British Fantasy Society Bulletin and Futurian War Digest as both 'Strange' and 'Stronge' so it's impossible to tell which is correct although the balance favours 'Strange'. However, D. R. W. is only referred to as 'Stronge'.
