Geehovah, thanks for your answer. Guess Iīll need to find a way to get your book. Any chance to get to pre-order it to you so it can be sent down here by November (or before)??

Bsweeper, thatīs truly an original picture. Hadnīt seen it before, thou I had read somewhere about the bar set up at RAF Stanley... well, guess there were many of them around.

In case you didnīt know, by late 83, when the MPA construction started, beer was apparently one of the most demanded supplies. If Iīm not mistaken, I read at Wickhamīs memories of that enterprise, that some time in Summer 1984 something like 4 containers were drunk each month at te construction site.

One last thing, now that some of you are around, could anyone tell anything about the "norwegian rubber hangars" deployed at RAF Stanley? When did they get there? Were they any good? Any incidents you recall with them? (fires, ie)

Thank you,
Christian
