I searched this site for any comments by QARANCs who had served at The BMH in vain. I was there during 1966 when we moved from the old farm buildings to the new BMH at Dickensweg close to the Olympic Stadium.
Great social life as there were only a few female officers and so we were invited to all formal occasions, in addition, we were very useful to accompany single chaps to the dubious night clubs. |

 Posted to Berlin 1966 - 69 and 1978. Worked in Comcen and was heavily involved in the Soviet plane saga. Ran the brigade canoe club & squadron x-country team. By far the best tour I ever had & managed to meet my future wife there!  |

| I served with 229 Sig Sqn from Oct 73 to Jan 76. Berlin was the best posting of my army life (64 -77) and it was where I met my wife, Frances Bullard Ferns, who worked for 229 as a civilian clerk. My boss was Major Gavin McKay, a great officer. I went back to Berlin in February 2011 and it was even more beautiful than ever. A fantastic city and, in my opinion, one of the finest in the world. If anyone who remembers me, reads this, please write -would be great to exchange items. |

I was stationed at Montgomory Barracks 81-83 with the LAD supporting the 1KORB. By far the best chapter in my career. Would love to get in touch again with anyone whe remembers me.  |

I served between 1983-87 at T'berg and 26SU 4H.
Fond memories of the American MPs (Red Eye introduction) and the joint T'berg USMP and RAF Police BBQs and Picinics.
The friends that I made at H4 RAF Gatow and T'Berg were many.
I remember Fraser (USMP)from T'berg and the invites between our families.
If I missed anyone sorry (Retired now and the the old grey matter kicking in).
Never can bring those days back.
As I said,
"WE WERE ALL SPOILT". |
