The colour photo on your page... I'm the civvy on the top right. I was doing a Youth Opportunities Programme, a 6 month placement with (from memory, appologies  if wrong) Sgt Dave Easton, Cpls Ski and Smith and L'cpls Welsh & Leith. Seem to also remember a Captain McClean? I lived in Krefeld and used to moped over before the schlep to Haltern ranges.
If it's not to late to say... Thank you all for the experience and what I learnt - not just as a chainman.
Still remember my brain hurting as I looked through the Kern K1-M trying to understand if the top reading to the middle reading was greater than the middle reading to the bottom reading excepting a tolerance of x.

Something of interest.

During the 80's two vehicles came into service,
the Centurion 105mm MBT in 1982 and the Willich A.V.R.E in 1987.
The Willich was designed by a Royal Engineer
who now serves as the SO2 in the Wing, Capt (retd) D Clegg MBE.
The vehicle was built by Armoured Engineers and
the R,E,M,E in the German town of Willich,
hence the name.
Both vehicles are no longer in service.
