No 24112294 L/Cpl. I
am trying to trace my old mate Peter Harvey we served together at
1FD/WSHOPS Beilefeld 1973/76. He had a wife, Jan, two girls Joanne
and Nicola, he lived in quarters at Oerlinghausen. I last heard
from him when he was doing his "tiffy" course in Bordon 1977. Does
anyone know of Pete or where he is now. Would also be great to
hear from any old 1FLD rugby members 1973/77. |

Palsy and a Daughter called Leona. He joined the Army in 1978 and
last known in the Dortmund area. He was a VM. |

Any Reccy Mechs out
there that were with 4 RHA in Hohne just before they went to Hong

remember his name, I was attached to 4RHA with the signals and we
ran the garrison signal centre - I spent a holiday with him in
Hong Kong in 1963. One of his favourite jobs was to have to
recover from the swimming pool (usually about 3am on a Sunday
morn) the cannon that used to be bolted down outside one of the
Bty HQ's. I think it belonged to Mercer Troop. Happy days ex NS. I
would like to make contact. |
