And wasn't there one at Cosford?? Or did the nurses that frequented Ternhill come from elsewhere??
One had ones appendix out at Woolwich Military Hospital. Remember ward rounds were scary with large moustachioed Brigadier CO, accompanied by even scarier, larger and only slightly less moustachioed full Colonel QA matron.. Bedside conversation went thus:
Brig: Ah, Sqn Ldr Teeters, what are you in for?
Teteers: Appendicectomy Sir!
Brig: And how old are you?
Teeters: 39 Sir.
Brig: 39! Harrumph! Should have had your appendix out
years ago!
