CJ & Mongo
I would like to add my sad memories of that time in the Falklands and the loss of the Faith. I was an Instie on 19 (F) Sqn and was detached down the Falklands at the time when we lost CJ & Mongo. They were a good crew to know, we had been detached to Spangdallen earlier that year and the Groundcrew and Aircrew mixed well and I got to know a little of the antics of Mongo in the Officers Mess at Spangdallen. I still remember well that time in Falklands and the antics of the Navy in the 12 facility bar the night of the crash. I attended the memorial service in the Falklands and I still have a copy of the order of service leaflet. It was real sad time but I remember their was a discussions of replacing the aircraft and renaming it Faith and a senior officer sending a letter from the UKwhich ended with “keep the Faith”
RIP CJ & Mongo
