Comments: Arrived at RAF Edzell as CTTSN in July, 1968. Worked in 32 DIV under the watchful eye of SSGT Bert Conklin. Bought a used VW and put many miles on it touring Scotland and the Continent. Running buddys were Scott Dangerfield and Larry Lander. Met Sheila McIntosh from Montrose and got engaged just before leaving in Jan, 1970. After "B" school at Ft. Devens and 14 months on Guam went back to Scotland for wedding. Made several trips back over the years--last in 1995. Sheila and I are no longer married but I still stay in touch with the McIntosh's. Great country & people.

Comments: I was one of the original crew there arrived shortly after Thanksgiving of 1960. Lived in the originl barracks and went into Edzell to eat at the Glen Esk hotel. Edzell will always have a very special place in my heart. Left in July of 1961 to go to Karamursel Turkey. Came back in 63(?) TAD to help with a technical problem at the site. Was hoping that it would turn into a PCS but no such luck. I believe that there were less than 50 sailors on board when I transferred. Sure wish I could see it again.

remember the Braemar games in 1970, Montrose, Brechin and
good beer not to mention the women. I was a "ditty chaser"
(CTR) but ended up doing something else while I was there.
I was anxious to see more of the world and volunteered for
duty that took me to Japan and then Guam. Now I travel for
business but it doesn't take me back to Scotland.....

have retired this past February! I now work for Delta Air
Lines and am always travelling!!!! I've seen most of the

Cant remember. Miss the fish and chips. Dont miss the

bit since I was last here. Thought I would sign the new
guestbook. I really hope to attend the 2002 reunion and
bring my wife so that she can see the old stomping grounds
from so many years ago. It is still so hard to believe
that it was 12 years ago that I left Edzell and got out of
the Navy. I was a CTT2 in 32 div.

born in Forfar maternity hospital in 1980. She is now a
soph at Purdue in the Rx program. My other daughter Sara
was born in 1984 and is a soph in high school. I teach 8th
grade and am in the process of finishing my masters
degree. I have been looking for Tim & Lynn White and Mark
Franklin. Still in touch with Earl & Isabel Smith, Al

supervising the marine section. The best duty station we
were at. There is a picture floating around somewhere of
me attending a Christmas party wearing a kilt and some
joker (Ike Eisenhauer) lifted my kilt and showed
that "real" men do in fact wear underwear under their
kilts. As a matter of fact, they were boxers covered with
red hearts..............

1980. Loved the country, the most beautiful scenery I have
ever seen. We formed a drill team while I was there and
marched in the local communities with the locals bringing
us into the pubs for some "foreign policy" talks, if you
know what I mean. I was saddened to hear that the station
closed but apparently it was meant to be. So sad, I
remember the Edzell castle, Panmure Arms hotel, the Edzell
Post Office, the BLUE DOOR, gee I am waxing nostalgic now.
