Dear Don,
Ive tried to contact yopu for the usual chat through this page. and also Forces Re-united. but to no avail so I'll try again. I was employed if thats the right word in the Station Armoury with Ted Pope. and was a good friend of Neil Moran Airframes.Jock Vine and Andy McLeod. If you have the photo taken of the group of us on the "Devonshire" i'm on the back row with the light hair! Iwas also in the Jungle Rescue team with one of your mates, a tall ginger haired lad who I believe came from your part of the world. I live in Lancashire on the edge of the Dales. Hope you receive my eMail Best Wishes,

Norman.
