Anysenior citizens interested in the Bergethon September 2011, I'm trying to get a team of vets from the late 70's/80's, (pacemakers supplied). Anyone interested drop me an e-mail, we need to get cracking if were to make the deadline.
I am looking for any information about my father Hector Ross who served in the Air Force Commandos during the war. He was in Sicily and Italy as far as I know. Is anyone able to give me more information.
Yet another great reunion – so good to meet up with old friends. Would just like to say thanks to the serving members of TSW who obviously put in a lot of work to make these reunions happen. Thanks guys. See you all next year!!
What a great time we enjoyed once again at the reunion, so good to meet with friends who served with 'Dave' in 3207SC. Many thanks to everyone involved in ensuring we all enjoyed ourselves so much. Premier Inn 'Hurricane' proved a commendable alternative to Tillington Hall.
Thanks for another great Reunion.
Just discovered this site and recognise so many names. Served on TSF & Logistics Squadron Gutersloh 1981 – 1984 and TSW Ops from 1985 – 1989. Had sime really great times and lasting memories. Keep up the good work and all the best, Dave "Doc"
Just came across this website and would like to say thanks though thanks does not seem for The Remembrance Commemorations in France, especially to FS Neil Storer and the photographer for the moving photos of Neil Storer laying a wreath at my grandfathers gravehttp://www.tswscdoassn.co.uk/news_archive_2008.html

Hi there, I am a Canadian Air Force officer doing research regarding all RCAF personnel who served in the Second World War. To be honest, I had never heard about the RAF Servicing Commando units until very recently, but the stories are fascinating! I was wondering if anyone would know if there were any RCAF personnel in the RAF Servicing Commandos? If there were, would it be possible to gent a list of names, initials, ranks, service numbers somewhere? I would be grateful for any assistance in identifying any known Canadian connection. I can be contacted at paradiefred@yahoo.ca and look forward to hearing anything about these personnel. Thanks in advance, Per Ardua Ad Astra. Captain Fred Paradie, Canadian Air Force
Hello,I'm posting this on behalf of my 91 year old father who is interested in hearing from other ex 3201 Servicing Commandos (or their offspring).He is Richard (Dickie) Unwin, born Dublin 1920. Served in Italy, Sicily and Tunisia.Anyone remember him by any chance?RegardsJill
My father -William Henry Keayes(Lac -1417563) Served with 3205 S C from April '43 through to January '46 in Normandy then India through to the near end for the unit.I have only just found out this information and would be grateful if anyone can furnish any insights as to him and the actions that 3205 saw both in Europe and the Far East. If you knew him personally, even better.I live in mid Kent so if anyone is local then please contact me here first and hopefully we can meet up.Michael Keayes
