A small private ceremony has been planned to mark the transition to Kinloss Barracks. The engineer regiment has been based at Waterbeach near Cambridge. By October, 716 personnel will have moved to Kinloss.
Isn't the HQ element of 39 Engineer Regiment only moving to Wittering though? Someone's not stupid..
I'd be interested to know how/why the army names these hand me downs as they do - whats the protocol? Some (Cottesmore) are now named after dusty Generals, some keep the name of the place.
I have strong memories of Kinloss (just as it will have of me..), I'm glad to see it keep a military presence.
