I'm a former Royal Marines Commando but my question concerns Servicing Echelons. What did they do? Where can I find out where No. 3070 was based in 1941/42?Thanks in anticipation.Derrick Morgan

I have just read Jeff Davies book, The history of RAF Servicing Comandos which I was able to purchase online. Thank you Jeff for this book. My father HARRY PLUMB was also in 3232 SCU and I have loads of photos which now make sense! I am almost sure that Dad is the chap on the right in the photo on page 43. And I have photos of them enjoying a skinny dip in the stream also mentioned on this page. It is an honour to read the history of RAF SCU's. I would love contact with any else connected to 3232. Best wishesEileen

Just to keep the memory of my father alive. My dad, Flt Sgt Eric Donald Stanhope, 540957 RAFSC3201. One of the first to take up Monty's challenge to volunteer (silly boy) for services unknown. He had many stories to tell, not of what he did, but of the people he met during his time with the Servicing Commandos. He lost a couple of good friends in Tunisia.( I think mainly from traffic accidents) He never recovered from the effects of war; refused to fly, drank too much, smoked too much, didn't sleep enough and died too young but still a very gentle man.CheersTony

Still have fond memories of the times spent between 1985-1988 with some of you who were there then.What a great site I found by chance when trying to look up some old acquaintances.Would be great to hear from anyone who was there at that time.Tried many a time to find Bob Tomkins whilst working in Manchester as a Motorway Cop but our paths never crossed.The last time I was on base was the 25th I think, the same fateful day that the Manchester IRA bomb went off.Hard to believe that 21years have passed since I used to 'look forward' to being shipped out to B/brook Mill.RegardsPaul Searle

My Dad joined the RAF in 1943 and was also in Combined OPS during WW2. His name was JOHN AITKEN DOUGLAS from Edinburgh and he would have been 18 when he joined. He didn't tell me much about his wartime experience other than he landed on Omaha Beach and I think he said that it was D-Day plus 1. He was a ground wireless operator by trade. After normandy he met a girl in Bruge,Belgium. Her name was Leanne. Later he went to the Far East and was stationed in Balikpapan in Borneo before the end of the war in Japan. Could anyone tell me what unit he would most likely have belonged to or indeed, does anybody remember my dad? Sadly he died five years ago on 6th June 2005. I would very much appreciate it if anyone has any information.Thanks in advance, Andrew Douglas
