For the information of those that served at 4 FTS Heany, after the RAF left it was taken over by the Rhodesian Army. My father had retired from the RAF and went back to Rhodesia so I followed. Within six months i was called up for basic (six months) training at the now LLewellan Barracks with the Royal Rhodesia Regiment. They used all the camp except the hangers; they were used by the Ministry of Agriculture to store surplus maize, three years reserve was the plan.
Within a year of Mugabe taking over the lot had been flogged to neighbouring countries for US dollars.
