Tony Starkey 1817

1955-1957 I did my basic training at Blandford and then went to Arborfield for training on tank electronics. I rebelled because I thought that it was dangerous to have us studying all day and then having to do drill and barrack cleaning in the evening - dangerous because we were told that if we made a mistake when working on the gun electronics under the counterweight the counterweight could come down and crush us. I thought that if we were only half awake the chance of such an accident was increased so I wrote a letter to the Daily Mirror and subsequently I was hauled up before the C/O and then transferred to Malvern for training as a vehicle electrician from where I was posted to Derna in Libya where I stayed until demob in 1957. I should like to hear from any of the many guys I met during my National Service.

Hugh Brock 1805

Hi , I am writing this on behalf of Hugh Brock now living in Ireland with his wife Peggy. He was in 7th amoured div from about 1948 to 1958. Although the 7th converted to something else I think. Hugh was also in the Z reserves. He was in Bedafield Germany. I am not sure of the correct spelling of the Bedafield. Hugh grew up around Heathrow Airport. In particular he remembers a Derek Carter. And also someone with the surname Chivers who we believe may have been related to the Chivers Jam company. Thanks for reading.

Robert Leonard Farmer [ Bob ] 1675

I was one of the last National Servicemen, joining REME in 1960 as part of intake 60/10 at no 1 Training Batallion at Blandford. I was sent to no 9 platoon A company under Corporal/ Sergeant Derricut. The next stop was Depot where we learned to use an SLR, Sterling and Bren gun. In October I went to Aden and was posted to the Independent Armoured Squadron Workshop in Little Aden [Falaise Camp]. The next excitement is that we were rushed up to Kuwait to help repel a threatened invasion by Iraq which included the gaff of arriving at RAF Khormakser without our rifles and someone was sent back to camp to get them all. I wasn't long in Kuwait as I contrived to cut my thumb on a rusty screw which went septic and I was casevacked first to Bahrein and then to Aden where I spent a very enjoyable two months on the balcony at Steamer Point Hospital while they put my thumb right. Wounds do not heal in Aden so after six weeks it was realised my thumb would not buck the trend, I was again casevacked, this time to the UK and the Royal Herbert Hospital at Woolwich. After this I went to the LAD at 24 Signals at Catterick and finished my time there. If anybody has them, I would love to have some photographs of the Falaise Camp as all my luggage failed to arrive in the UK when I came home. Bob Farmer
