I'm not sure why I haven't looked through this thread before but thanks to everyone who's posted fascinating insights into life at RAF Sharjah. My late father in law was education Officer out there in the early 60s and as well as telliing the odd anecdote, he left a selection of slides taken at Sharjah and around. Fortunately he spent some time scanning and identifying locations and personalities so they might be of some interest and I'll try to post a few when time permits.
