For us, the magic moment came as we all sat down to Dinner on the saturday night. Just like a Squadron Dinner should be like. Many thanks. Looking forward to 4,5 and 6 June next year.

Yours aye. Chris/Smudge/JB & Margaret Smith

I wanted to say “Well Done” to both you and Richard. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, and there didn’t appear to be any hiccups. It really was quite a remarkable event. I Have written e-mails to people I promised, which includes Alan Hodges.

Hi Hank I felt I had to let you know that I found the weekend to be fabulous it was so good to see so many "old" faces. I am not going to mention anyone in particular but just having a few pints & one or two whiskies and grabbing hold of the odd sandbag was great fun. A great week end and I hope to return.

Many Thanks John Olford.

What a great weekend! I can't believe 40 years have gone by and all those memories came back as though they were yesterday.
Thank you and Nobby for a wonderful job in making it such a success.

The venue was good too with good food and excellent service from the staff.
I wish we could come back next year but it's a long way!

Cheers Adrian & Shirley Rogers

The re-union was a brilliant affair and went off very well.

It is amazing that I met blokes that were in bomb disposal with me as well as our special SQUADRON.

The work that went into the weekend was impressive and for one I wish to thank both

of you for that effort.

As far as I know everyone enjoyed the weekend and they all mixed well, even if they were from different periods of service.

Anyway, much congratulations and thanks are due to you both and may your jungle trained skills stand you in good stead for the future.

Wer'e a shower of b******s, b******s are we,

Bill Kibble.

Speak to you soon. Taffy. Bishop
