164	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo of this pond, photographed in May 1960, was close to the Stop Butts, it became a source of feverish activity in the summer of 1961. News filtered back that there was a big Stop and Search of all vehicles. At that time, inventories were being regularised prior to Jever's closure and there was a lot of surplus tools about due to the storekeeper's 'squirreling' and if you wanted anything then you could have it. There were cars turning around and heading for this place to dump surplus tools. It turned out that the search was for a large fresh salmon that had been liberated from the Officers' Mess prior to a Summer Ball!nbsp; [Backlog 11Feb16 390 days] (Click to see.)
163	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo of the The Stop Butts behind 4 and 93 Squadron's hangar, deep in the woods - May 1960. There was a special stand for mounting and test firing a 30mm Aden cannon. On the few occasions we did fire it, the noise was deafening (and frightening). Downside to this was that we had to 'de-lead' the butts. Still a nice change on a sunny day!nbsp; [Backlog 11Feb16 390 days] (Click to see.)
162	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo of the Royal Air Force Germany Soccer Cup Winners - 22nd April 1961 - Royal Air Force Jever. RAF Jever 3 - RAF Laarbruch 0. Scorers: Bill Orchard, John Mackenzie Tommy Fairgrieve. Played at RAF Gutersloh. L to R; Back row: Flt Lt Richards (PFO), Sqn Ldr Watkins, Office i/c, Snr Tech Ron Price (Manager), Cpl Terry Holbrook (PTI), Cpl Reg Spurway 2 Sqn (Captain), SAC Paddy Purcell, Central Armoury, SAC Jock Lees Comcen, J/T John Mackenzie Central Armoury, Cpl Ian Graham, ASF (Trainer), SAC Don Pardoe, ASF (Reserve), Gp Capt I. S. Smith Station Commander. Front row: J/T Derek (Nobby) Hobbs, Central Armoury, SAC Bill Orchard, Comcen, SAC Andy Harkness, ASF, Cpl Pete Penman, PTI, SAC Johnny Green, ASF, SAC Tommy Fairgrieve, MT Section. Sweet success - John thinks that this was the first time that Jever had won it, it was certainly the last! At that time, with the closure impending the team were breaking up with postings out. Paddy Purcell was actually at Laarbruch, but he made it back and certainly joined in the celebrations. We were all so chuffed at our victory. None more so than the Group Captain. He always supported us, turning up in his Alfa Romeo sports car. The Laarbruch team were really miffed at losing. Even to this day my pal who was in the Laarbruch team can't believe that they lost. Last time we met John showed him his winner's cup to confirm it! The cup remains one of John's most treasured possessions.nbsp; [Backlog 11Feb16 390 days] (Click to see.)
161	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo taken at Base Aerienne Cazaux, Arcachon, SW France Sept 1960. This was our departure from Cazaux: Cpl Tommy Cox (armourer) 4 Sqn kmeeling foreground. 'Nobby' Hobbs, Bob Barter 4 Sqn Arm Mech, John Mackenzie. Background Italian Air Force F.86s. John had been away from Jever for nearly three months and enjoyed every moment of it but was looking forward to returning. John had no idea of what was to come after this photo was taken. The journey back in a Valetta was frightening. We were in cloud most of the way with rain and hail beating down on the aircraft. It pitched and wallowed all the way back to Jever. It made the 14 hour trip in a Hercules from Acsension to RAF Stanley, which he undertook in September 1982, seem like a 'piece of cake'.nbsp; [Backlog 11Feb16 390 days] (Click to see.)
160	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo of RAF Germany's gunnery team, comprising (5 Hunter F.6s of No. 4 Squadron and their groundcrew) landing at Base Aerienne Cazaux Arcachon, SW France in September 1960. We, (the groundcrew), and ground equipment had flown in by Beverley previously. In 1960 John had been detached to RAF Sylt with 2 Sqn, 4 Sqn and then on to the gunnery team as a 2nd line armourer servicing the 30mm Aden and harmonising the guns, the other 2nd line armourers were Derek 'Nobby' Hobbs and Al Jelley (who had replaced Erol Palsey who had succumbed to chicken pox at Sylt). The work up and preparation were quite meticulous. Every round that was to be fired was checked electrically using a safety ohmeter and then 'tipped' using a soft lead paint. Both practices would probably not be allowed these days. Prior to the Hunters flying down they were washed with aviation fuel in the hangar at Sylt, dried and then polished with copious amounts of Wadpole. The living accomodation at Cazaux was dire. The washroom was a communal trough interspersed with cold water taps that lined the walls. As we were washing or shaving you would get someone's expectorated toothpaste floating by, you were buoyed in the knowledge that someone 'downstream' from you was also suffering the same fate. The toilets looked as if a lamd battle had raged through them although the graffiti that adorned the walls was both interesting and artistic. It was a relief (in more ways than one) to go to Arcachon on the nightly recreation run and find a hotel with real toilets and good food. John has a great photograph of the previous gunnery team's detachment comprising Fighter Command's 66 Squadron and Hunters of the Norwegian and Dutch Air Forces and French Mysteres. Apart from those there was quite an eclectic mix of aircraft at Cazaux including B-17s and Fairchild Packets? (Or the French equivalent [Web Master: Probably the Nord Noratlas?]).nbsp; [Backlog 11Feb16 390 days] (Click to see.)

154	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo of No 2 Sqn on detachment at APS Sylt - July 1960. This photograph was taken from 'A' Flight Armoury across the dispersals. Immediate foreground is Cpl. Pete Reynolds, armourer; striding across to the Swifts is Cpl./Tech. Tony Tydeman armourer, 2 Sqn. Notice all the safety traverses in front of the aircraft. On the same line as the Swifts are the Sea Hawks of No. 1 Fliegermarine, based, John thinks, at Flensburg. He remembers being impressed by the quality of the protective clothing worn by the German ground crew. The Javelin (FAW4s) of 3 Squadron, RAF Geilenkirchen, are to the right. There was always a fair amount of competitiveness between all of the detached squadrons (apart from the air firing element), soccer matches being the favourite, whatever the season! One evening when they were 'stacking' for the day there was a sharp crack from the direction of 3 Squadron. John's pal off No. 3 was disarming a drogue gun when it fired, the drogue rod which was about 10 inches long went through his upper arm and the breech broke his thigh bone. He eventually made a full recovery. Five years later John was stationed with him in Tengah, in his KD shorts the scars were pretty impressive. The only saving grace to this incident was that the drogue parachute was disconnected when it fired. The incident brought home to the armourers the dangers involved when handling ejection seats and, of course, re-arming aircraft. [Backlog 11Feb16 389 days] (Click to see.)
153	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo of Seahawk of No. 1 Fliegermarine German Navy at RAF Sylt July 1960. Hawker Sea Hawk Crew:1; Powerplant: one 2,449Kg (5,400lbs) thrust Rolls-Royce Nene 103 turbojet engine; Performance: Max speed 969kph (602mph); range: 1,287Km (800 miles); service ceiling: 13,565m (44,500ft); Dimensions: wingspan: 11.89m (39ft); length: 12.09m (39ft 8in); height: 2.64m (8ft 8in); Weight: 7,348Kg (16,200lbs); Armament: four 20mm Hispano cannon; provision for four 227Kg (500lb) bombs, or four 227Kg (500lb) bombs and 10 20cm(8in) or 16 12.7cm (5in) rocket RPs. The Hawker Sea Hawk started life as P.1040, a prototype single-seat, land-based interceptor. The first prototype Sea Hawk flew on 2 September 1947, and the aircraft entered production as the Sea Hawk Mk. 1. Later Sea Hawk variants, culminating in the FGA VI, possessed a strengthened wing to accommodate bombs, rockets or drop tanks. Sea Hawks were issued to Fleet Air Arm squadrons in 1953, and three years later the type was to see action with six squadrons during the Suez crisis, carrying out many ground attack operations. Sea Hawks also served with the Royal Netherlands Navy, the Federal German Naval Air Arm, and the Indian Navy. Specifications apply to the Sea Hawk FGA VI. [Backlog 11Feb16 389 days] (Click to see.)

150	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo of the new boys; early 1961 FR-10s of 2 and 4 Squadron in front of the old 93 Squadron hangar at RAF Jever. 14 Squadron arrived on detachment from RAF Gutersloh and almost doubled in size. An event which I remember from this time occurred during air/ground firing. The wrong gun pack [it contained HE ammunition] was loaded. The range at Meppen was set on fire after the pass, the result was quite spectacular, it was rumoured that the peat caught fire. I witnessed an air/ground demonstration there and it was impressive and that was just using ball ammunition. The nearest Hunter is XE625 "I" which arrived on 2Sqn on Tue 28 Feb 1961 and transferred to 4 Sqn on Thu 12 Feb 1970 First Flt 17Jun56 by Frank Bullen. Delivered as F.6 on 11Jul56 to 263Sqn.

149	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo of the line up of 93 Squadron and 4 Squadron. AOC's Inspection Royal Air Force Jever - 10th May 1960. The next (and the last) time I saw anything like this was in 1962 at RAF St Athan where all the F.6s of 4, 20, 26 and 93 and many other F.6s were stored in a hangar prior to conversion to different marks and for different Air Forces. It was quite a poignant moment. The hangar was brightly lit and so still. Unfortunately I didn't have a camera with me, perhaps just as well, too many memories, too many ghosts.

148	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo and says he could never figure out why this contented puzzled looking sow was housed between the 93 squadron hangar and the railway line. His pal on 4 Squadron reckoned it was 93 Squadron's mascot - but he would wouldn't he! [Web Master's Notes: Before John's time at Jever, around 55-56, 118 Squdon did have a pig as a mascot. She was called Elspeth and was won in a local fete at Celle by Bodger Edwards before 118 Sqn came up to Jever. The series of pictures from the squadron photo here (Click to see) and the next four pages, explains the fun that they had with her and her quartering behind the hangers. Unfortunately eventually she had to be quietly retired to the abattoir. However you will see from these references that the station had a PSI Farm that provided fresh produce for the station and this pig is probably one of the last residents of the station pig farm?] [Backlog 11Feb16 383 days] (Click to see.)

147	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo of Steve Aveling with the Central Armoury BORGWARD on a track which ran around the Bomb Dump. John Mackenzie was teaching him to drive. There were three of them who did the driving - J/T Mackenzie, J/T "Nobby" Hobbs and J/T Eddy Cook, they didn't hang about! Mel Leake reckoned that 80 journeys from the Block (35) across the airfield to the Central Armoury qualified you for a place on the Mercury Space programme! - May 1960.

146	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo of fellow Junior Technician and armourer Mick "Eroll" Flynn posing on the demolished Flak Tower directly behind the Central Armoury. Apparently it formed a part of the outer defences of Wilhelmshaven during WWII. Mick and John Mackenzie were apprentices at RAF Halton and were posted to Jever together in September 1959. He worked in the Ejection Seat Bay while John was in the Central Armoury servicing 30mm's. They remain friends to this day - April 1961. [Backlog 11Feb16 379 days) (Click to see.)

145	Thanks to his wife Jules we learned the sad news that Wing Commander "Bugs" Bendell, 4 Sqn pilot from 13May57 to Jul58, flew his final sortie, aged 80, at the end of a lomg, brave fight. Much loved husband, father and grandfather who will be sadly missed by all. He was the most valiant and positive of men, a gentle spirit with an iron core. If wished, donations to The Royal Star and Garter Homes, or to MS research. The funeral will take place on 19th January at 12 noon at Amersham Crematorium in the Milton Chapel. The Chapel doors will be open from 1130 to enable you to wait inside until the service. Afterwards at the Officers' Mess, Air Command, RAF High Wycombe. [Backlog 11Feb16 328 days) (Click to see.)

134	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo taken when 'Nobby' Hobbs and John Mackenzie visited Jever in 1990 they managed to track down their old German fitter from the Armoury, Alfred Werner. His wife was delighted to see them. They were saddened to learn that Alfred, (shown on the left with 'Nobby' Hobbs), had dementia and had no recollection of anything. Amazingly after 20 years since they left he looked nearly the same. [Backlog 11Feb16 307 days) (Click to see.)

He found the place much the same and obviously frequented by detached squadrons of the RAF after John had long gone judging by the squadron badges and memorabilia that adorned the bar. He relates that for some reason the journey back from the Kaffeehaus (always on foot) used to develop into a race which 'Nobby' Hobbs - despite some cheating and blatant obstructioin - always won!

When 'Nobby' Hobbs and John Mackenzie visited the unit in 1990, all the bunks in the attic had been ripped out and the attic contained a table tennis table.

101	Thanks to John Mackenzie added photo of the remains of the gun pack from Hunter FR.10 XE621 H outside the 30mm bay at RAF Gutersloh after the aircraft crashed on 30Jan62. Note the bent barrel that would take some force. The gun contained 540 rounds of HE ammunition and they recovered most of it. The rest was recovered by the Bomb Disposal Team from RAF Butzweilerhof. During their search they happened to locate a German family's valuables which had been buried during the war. The location had been forgotten as a battle had taken place over the spot where it had been buried - lucky for some. [Backlog 11Feb16 266 days) (Click to see.)
