Did my basic training here in January 1983 as a member of 217 sqn RCT. WO2 Milne and Corporal Byrnie, where are you now?Remember seeing and hearing young "convicts" being drilled in boiler suits as part of the Conservative "short, sharp shock" policy. They were kept away from us. Then, also a summer camp when I did my driving qualification. Brilliant memories! My god, where did the time go!
Hi, I did my basic training here with 157 regiment 237 squadron Royal Corps of Transport hard work but great fun this was back in 1978 I ended up as a B1 Corporal driving Fuel Tankers throughout the UK and Europe refuelling every thing from motorbikes to aircraft very interesting and exciting and something I am very proud of i worked with some great people and made a lot of good friends, some still keeping intouch. Unfortunately it all came to an end when we were rebadged to the R L C and lost our role as tanker drivers to driving container lorries just not the same but the memories I have will stay with me to the end.
Had my basic training there for 159 regiment, 237 squadron Royal Corps of Transport in early 1980. Great days and great people.
