  1. hi.
    my names norman webb,even though i was not a member of 5sqdn but 2nd sqdn we were both part of 23 fld eng regt based at napier barracks dortmund,i was there from 1953-56 the cre.was a lt.col.carr who i believe was canadian. the rsm.was wo1 watson mm.the rqms was wo2 blackman who was also an instructor in the wireless school,it always seemed strange to me that we could never get any reception around moene see we could never get the 19 set into the bar.also
    people who took part in winter warfare training may remember the ski hut which we built at winterberg next to the open air ice rink,used to warm up in the old church of scotlands,DEW DROP INN.maybe a few older ones amongst us will remember the old times.best wishes norman. w

  15. Hi, I'm Dennis Spears (formerly KIng)(24179911) and I served with 2 Troop, 5 Fd Sqn at Corunna Barracks from 1970 to 1975. Did several tours in NI, plus Canada, Norway and Berlin during this period. Must admit this was one of the best tours I ever did. Ended my career after 23 years in 1992 having served in Waterbeach 1977-1978, Ripon 1975-1977, Nepal 1981-1983, Nienburg 1978-1981 & 1983-1985, Chattenden 1983-1984, Falkland Islands 1990-1992, Northern Ireland 1985-1988, HQ MWF Chilwell 1988-1990 All in all I had a great time, but I believe my best time was with 5 Fd Sqn. Can anyone remember these other 5 Sqn members John Roy, Clint Walker, Denis Penelver, Dave Cameron, Mick Wigan, Tich Ford, John Brooks, John Hickey, Spider Webb, George Bumblby, Scouse Burden, Bob Sherriff?????????

    hi..does anyone remember me i wonder. Trained and was a signaller from 1960 with 3 Troop,5 Field Sqn.ran the Signal store with Dave Dent until he left the unit and carried on with the same job till 1968,
    went from B3 sigs to RSI and lost my first Tape under a cloud at the Exercise where we built a Triple /Triple bailey brig.I think the Exercise was called QUEEN COBRA I remember that WO2 Fritz Conway was the SSM at the time and my premotion to full screw crossed in the postwith my reduction down to Spr.I had a few too many when i was called off of Vehicle Control with my A41 and was odered to take the names of anyone who couldnt pay for a hair cut..my downfall was being placed with the barber who kept buying me a Scnapps and Beer ...We were based in thelocal Guesthouse
