Any old M.T. Section or Equipment Section back there in Scotland or England?  Brings back many fond memories reading the familiar places in Suez Canal Zone,and in UK.  Anyone remember 'Scotty' at Kasfareet, 1950 - 1951 and Habbanyia 1951 - 52?  Didn't see any women in all the names I read, but here I go,
there is always a first.  Must be someone out there who is still kicking.  God Bless.

On behalf of my father I am looking for any old service pals of his, ideally with photos as my fathers have all been destroyed.  He did his National Service in the
Canal Zone and was also at Caterham and Pirbrite.

My late father, Bill Richardson was RASC. When the trouble started in earnest we moved from Arishia to Tel el Kebir by convoy, and came under fire at the last villiage before the open road to TEK. Needless to say I joined up in 53 so that if the same thing happened, I could fire back, ha ha, it did! Now that the bar has been granted, it will be interestng to see how 'they' play it as the ribbon I believe is full (seven bars only!)  Well done to you all. All the best,   John .
