| There was a gunnery accident (165mm Cent' AVRE) in 1964 at Lulworth Ranges when an old mate of mine (Fred Gogin) was badly injured. He would like to make contact with David Scott and Bill (Lofty) Bond who, he said, saved his life. Fred was a gunnery instr and the 2 guys were students serving with the RE Wing at Bovington (Armoured Engineers)
I have tried to find them both but with no success - tried many ex mil sites, FRU, GRU, FB etc, etc | |

Jerry Jerry, not on here every night hence delays in replying. Ta for offer of help much appreciated. Will have to talk to mate. When I searched GenesRU (fam history site) I estimated ages as born around 1942, give or take 3 years but nil result Latest action I've taken is to Email local REA Secs for Leeds and Cornwall to see if the guys are members. I see you served Marchwood. I was a trainee Marine Engineer there in 1959 at 17 Port Training Regt but got chucked out Autumn 59. Trouble was, Scrumpy was a lot cheaper than beer! lol | |
