Hi langley baston - we must know each other. I was on 4 sqn from 1967 until we disbanded in 1970. The Boss was Eric Smith, who was followed by Tony Hopkins. Other squadron members I can just about remember were Ian Weston, Taff Wallis,Bob Dymond, Ken Petrie,Ken Jones, Pete Gover ( not Glover) Bill Sheppard, Al Cleaver, Sam Goddard,Keith Holland, Tim Thorn, Bill Langworthy, Pad Williams, Al Mathie, Derek Whitman, Pat Kiggell. OC Ops was Dave Rhodes as I remember, followed by Dickie Dickinson. The staish was Dave Ross followed by Keith Williamson. That's just about exhausted my memory banks, but Gutersloh will always remain my favourite station. We worked hard and played hard and there are too many memories to set down here, but Nigel Walpoles' book on the Hunter FR10, Best of Breed helped to jog a few grey cells.
