Now living in Hartlepool, Cleveland
Comments I did my training with 51.11 group  at Honiton Devon, a clerical course at Gosport Hants, a short time at Ashford Middlesex, then I was shipped out on the
Empire Trooper to Port Said.  My memories are the scorching heat, living six to a tent - 3 R.E.M.E. with 3 Maurition troops, (we all finished up great friends,)
the salt water showers, the pits covered by planks of wood with several holes cut out, each hole was separated with sacking, and that was were we had to do our
daily's, as we tried to avoid the infestation of dung beatles.  The scary guard duties, and the great friendships we made.  A never to be forgotten experience.
