Thanks, Steve, for the change of address of baor-locations. I always believed that the early warning radar in Germany was worth telling so the full story is now available on Flickr - see
http://www.flickr.com/photos/bellrockman2011/sets/72157632369678583/
I did try to interest Neatishead some years back, but they didn't seem all that much interested in my story; also the Secret Bunker in Fife. Although it did interest them, it lead to nothing. The Americans (Radomes), however, were, and I gave them a couple of scans for their own site. It is possible to do something similar with the baor site. Any thoughts?

To Brian, above . . . well, we must have just missed each other. Please see the address above. I didn't arrive in 114 SU till late September 1955. If you are from Newcastle, then there was a Geordie lad there during my time, but I can't remember his name. I think there's even a photo of him in the Flickr site mentioned above. Jock (David)

Hello,

I was posted to RAF Sundern, [2Group ops. room] in October, 1952. From there
had several detachments to Early Warning Radar sets at Luneburg, Cuxhaven
[ HMS Royal Albert] and Sennerlager, before spending my third year of service
in the Station Signals at RAF Sylt, an air firing training school.

Jasper

Welcome

Did you ever serve on detached duty at the RAF Radar Stations in Husum or Kiel? If so would be very interested in any memories you may recall.

No, I never got to either of those two places.
