RAF El Adem
ISTR off-loading kit from El Adem during a tour at Fairford during 1969/70. It was being brought back on the then, very new Hercules. I believe we were asked to leave El Adem following a bit of a local disturbance led by someone called Gaddafi. Now there's another bit of aggro going on, the same bloke is at the centre of it and the Hercs are pulling people out of it - history does seem to repeat itself.
