CONTRIBUTIONS TO DATE:
--
These contributions are made by my mother, still surviving into her 90th year. And from my personal memory of what my father related to me of his time in service. He is now 21 years dead and I hope my memory has served his memory well.
--
I could have combined these contributions, but then I would not have been able to submit so many photographs. They are set out here in a chronological order. Firstly, those of my mother, and then those of my father that I can safely recollect.

I would like some help with some of the locations. For instance, where was Rotunda .......?
Does anyone have any knowledge of Johnnie North? I wish I had been more attentive to recording these memories at the time.
I would dearly like to know what happened to those Desert Rat flashes.
