RAF Police Crime Prevention Bklt 1970, Far East Air Force, Singapore
Something different this time. Not the usual vintage edition of Provost Parade, the journal of the Royal Air Force Police, but a booklet produced by Forces Publications in Singapore for HQ FEAF at RAF Changi.
At first glance the sheer quantity of adverts might suggest it was simply a wheeze to fatten the Mess Fund but the advice it offers is a timely reminder of simple steps everyone can take to prevent crime. Also, I notice that small family owned businesses like those in Changi Village were given free advertising space.
The letter that is collated into the booklet near the front suggests this copy was one of a batch destined for the Royal Australian Air Force at Butterworth Air Base, Malaysia.

zhlédnutí 65Před měsícem
Looks can be deceiving, because not one single body part of the North American First Gen Escort (1981 - 1990) was the same as our Escort Mk 3. In spite of being dubbed Ford's World Car the only things they shared was an engine and gearbox. However, on both sides of the Pond the car sold predictably well, it being a replacement for the Pinto Stateside.

They're all here, those wild little troublemakers - Billy, Dolly, Jeffy, PJ the baby and Barfy the dog - along with tormented, long suffering Mommy and Daddy. For some reason this popular newspaper cartoon didn't make it on this side of the Pond. This book was the first compilation and I discovered it in the PX in West Berlin in 1973. Part 2 to follow.

Brochure: '82 Lincoln Continental
zhlédnutí 461Před 4 měsíci
The all-new, Fox based, seventh gen Continental was a foot and a half shorter than the previous model. It had a style that was reminiscent of the Versailles which had ceased production two years earlier. As a mid-size sedan it was intended to compete with Cadillac's Seville. The bustle-back trunk design is a Marmite feature if ever there was one.

These old cartoons drawn for CR mag by Gray Jolliffe were absolute gems. Today they are completely off the radar so I intend to post any that come my way to give them a second airing. They hark back to a simple time when advertising benefited from creative minds unencumbered by self imposed political correctness and constraints on humour.

Someone once said "You're better off in a Buick" and considering the marque has almost always been the most reliable US domestic car brand it is difficult to find a flaw in that remark. This year's offerings include three all-new designs for the Park Ave, Century and Regal models, the latter being described as a "97 and a half". Also inside the brochure are the Riv, LeSabre and Skylark. The Roa...

Last Surviving Beverley About to be Scrapped. UPDATE: No it Ain't!!!

Actually, there are an awful lot of people who care about the last Beverley not least Martyn Wiseman and Georg Von der Muehll who saved the last example, serial XB259, from the scrapyard in 2020. Sadly their funds have stretched only as far as dismantling the airframe for transportation from Fort Paull where it was on display. You can see it in slide 5, all laid out on the grass.

A world away from the only Chrysler badged vehicle I ever owned, an '89 New Yorker Landau, these two cars might have shared the same moniker, Sebring (named after the Sebring International Raceway in Sebring, Florida), and were launched together, they were in fact, two completely different vehicles sharing no components whatsoever. Successors to the LeBaron, for me they mark the point where Chr...

@sjmachrihanish this Jeffy character is a nobody for people calling him Jeffy nobody likes him for it nobody wants him around for it & no girl wants to be his girlfriend for it that’s why you shouldn’t be a fan of this franchise 👎
Hey I was on that exercise with D coy RGJ, it pissed down for nearly 2 weeks and people were going down with hypothermia because they didn't have any waterproof clothing
Hi I was with this tour in 88 I'm number 11 on the top row, I can remember some of these faces
Still got your Porsche, Steve?!😉
Hi I remember this I'm the 11th soldier on the top with a big slug tache.....great days
Yep, they were.You were one of two Castles!
Why were they nicked named Falling Plate ?
They were not nicked-named that, another regiment called the Green Howards were called 'Falling Plates'.
Hey, get that FOD picked up
A lot of Anigrand.

UPDATE: Martyn Wiseman has offered the plane to Solway Aviation Museum at Carlisle Airport who are trying to scrape together 60 Grand to transport the airframe sections up there. Dig into your pockets, folks, this is probably the Beverley's last chance saloon!
This reminds me of an exchange exercise with the yanks a year or so earlier. I was A Coy 4 RGJ, Fort McCoy Wisconsin, Happy days.
I should say. Blimey!
It's funny how you chance across a slide show such as yours and it triggers memories. If I recall correctly, the company sent to the states was made up of platoons from across the battalion, I was asked because I was Milan platoon 😄🤔
The Germanic people of the east under Soviet rule! But the pictures, even if made for propaganda purposes makes it look desirable. We know it wasn’t as so many people fled west or tried to… Alas perhaps it wasn’t so bad compared to todays Europe..?

Wenn ich die Fotos von Berlin anschaue, stelle ich fest, wie sauber und zivilisiert alles mal war.
Mit der Kamera nur in die Seitenstraßen und man hätte das verrottende Ostberlin gesehen.
Coming from the UK back in the 70's, we thought that West Germany was tidy, with little or no litter on the ground. It also seemed to have a higher standard of living, which to me seemed a bit galling, all things considered!

All my vids are at LHR. How did an ex RGJ Brit end up at AMS?
@@sjmachrihanish Nice one. After being a regimental health and safety manager, I was offered a job for intel international at Schiphol Rijk (near AMS airport). Osnabrück garrison was returning to the UK then and after 7 years out of uniform I was not ready to take on the Rifles job offer going back into a rifle company in Paderborn so here I am. Had a few issues trying to be a business owner and recently started at Schiphol airport as a health and safety officer
My old platoon officer lives up the road from me, and another member of B coy, 1RGJ was living in Rotterdam, went back to UK a few months ago. But we are looking at setting up something so he might be back

That was my first Lion Heart and and a very rain filled two weeks till that date. After that crap i never wanted to see Germany again. Who would have guessed i was gonna be bassed there with 1 RGJ and and spend 19 years in total with 4th Amd Brigade

As someone who once drove a 1989 Crown Victoria LX, I'd say it's one of the best experiences of my life, and they are tough V8 cars.
I once owned an 84 Mercury Grand Marquis Colony Park LS. I would describe it as 95% Ford Country Squire, 5% Lincoln. It was such a practical car. I look back and all I can remember is driving around with fridges and washing machines in the back belonging to all my mates. Apart from the Christmas tree each year I never used the cargo space!
