Guetersloh 1974 -1995
I spent over 2 years on VASF as a sooty (engine Mechanic) at wonderfull RAF Gut, I was there from 74 till 77 on VASF was then sent to Brawdy and then Kinloss, but within 6months was back in Guetersloh as a Civi. the RAF regiment was 63Sqdn, 18Sqdn Wessex choppers were there too, and 2 Squadrons of the best Aircraft the RAF ever had or ever will have, Lightnings but then I was posted to Guetersloh from 5 sqdn and My father was on 11 sqdn same base. I seem to remember that there was also a group of 21 signals on RAF G and a small contingient of Bundeswehr Radar people. Fluegies is a place I sort of remember well, was never sober then, but in later years I was the only Brit cab driver in Gutersloh so I was sober then and remember it. After living in Guetersloh for over 21 years I came back to Scotland. Only thing I didn't like about Germany was the Divorce laws, nuff said.
