Comments:I am an ex-Royal Engineers (1965 - 1989) and had to give up work in August of 2007 to become a full time carer for my wife who suffers from acute bi-polar disorder. For many years my family friends and colleagues have tried to persuade me to put pen to paper to down some of the many 'stories' I would tell at social and family occasions. They likened my to Unc in only fools and horses! I remember when . . . . Eyes would roll and at least one would say, "Pull up a Sandbag" or "Swing the Lights". However the stories were always funny and I would usually have them rolling in the aisle. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Continuing Story of Our Lad Ricky by Michael A Ruston Ricky – The Early Years I have attempted in my books to give a feel of what life was really like for a military family living below the poverty line in the 1950s and early 1960s. In this, the first of the four books, I detail my

Comments:I served my National Service as a Sapper. Joined up in September 1955 at Malvern, then to Norton Barracks in Worcester for trade training, before returning to Malvern prior to going to Barton Stacey to await transportation to Singapore. Finally left the UK aboard the Empire Orwell late March/early April 1956. Was assigned to Singapore Engineer Regiment, stationed at Gillman Barracks. I spent most of my time here serving as as tally clerk in Singapore docks, plus for a time as a pay clerk in HQ. Played cricket for RE Gillman, and scored for RE Singapore on 2 visits up country to Kuala Lumpar, when we played RE Malaya. Many good memories, including being ordered to attend dances at "The Raffles", owing to a shortage of male partners for the attending ladies, paying $4 a bottle of tiger, against 50 cents a pint on the Naafi Club opposite for the priviledge.

Comments:I am the son of Driver George Tuck 14 field squadron RE. Served from 1938 - 45 inm the european theatre. Dunkirk to Cologne based at Konigswinter at the end of the big war, the one in all the papers. Posted to the Depot in the sky 1992. I am currently writing his story from what he has told me over the years. There is a lot of jumble in there as he had to be pissed to talk about a lot of it. As well as confusion because I was pissed trying to keep up with him. Those old boys could certainly put it away. Really I was looking for a Regimental History of 14 field squadron, he told me just before he died that one had been written. Well he couldn't have told me after he died but you know what I mean. Anyone out there have any idea where I can get hold of same I would be grateful. Furthermore anyone knowing him or of him any stories would be welcome good and bad I have no illusions. Besides the bad ones are the best in my experience. Thanks Stewart K. Tuck

I remember the incident well as we where on Sangar Duty at Mount Pottinger Police Station when, and I was walking down the steps from the Roof Sangar when the shots rang out. I went to Micks Funeral as part of the honour guard. Cpl Lofty Spate was our Section Commander at the Time. The only ones I recognise from the photo's are Stodge Hogson, we went onto 8Fld Sqn in Tidworth together.

Comments:Hi, I am looking for information regarding my father's Army history. His name was Arthur Doulas Davis,corporal 1874542, I dont know which regiment he belonged to, but was born in Dorchester June 28 1922 and was posted to West Yorkshire in 1940 where he met my mother Millicent Baldwin. My dad spoke little of his time in the army,and I would love to find out more about his regiment. I remember he had a fabric badge sown onto his left sleeve with an old fashioned diving helment on it. I would be delighted if anyone could shed any light on my Dad,s military past as he is no longer around to ask.
