Mike Ely, National Serviceman
Mike Ely, a National Service driver who served at 13 during 1956 & 1957 has supplied the photographs etc. which follow.
There follow two colour views the first as received and the second as I recall 13 in 1959
This plan was supplied with handwritten details, I have attempted to update it from memory as it was from 1958 to 60, should anyone have more to add, such as who occupied the other three barrack rooms, please get in touch. Please note that the plan is probably larger than your screen and you need to use your scroll bars to view completely.
