Mike Fleet reports: "Long serving Lloyd Maloney worked in HQ Admin, and National Serviceman Frank Di Rienzo was a fighter plotter. Both represented RAF Jever. Lloyd also competed for 2TAF with distinction. As a multi event man he was the mainstay of the station team. He loved the diversity of the sport, happily trying his hand at everything up to 200m, and all field event apart from the hammer throw. Lloyd also contested the 1957 Amateur Athletics Association (British) Decathlon Championships winning the bronze medal, having been specially coached by Mr Edwards, the PE Master at Prince Rupert's School, Wilhelmshaven. Lloyd's pole vault record of 3.58m which he set for the Caribbean island of Montserrat in 1959 still stands. Both these fine athletes contributed positively to Anglo German relations as valued members of the TSV Germania Club in Wilhelmshaven."
