I remember those Australian eggs in cellulose, for some reason Sharjah was the last in the supply line and without the cellulose, the eggs would have gone off-would have probably tasted better anyway.
I remember in 1965 that there was a kind of mutiny in the Airmen's mess, the eggs were so disgusting that I understand that the guys took their egg and bacon breakfast and then tipped it all over the servery as a protest. I seem to remember that the revolt was led by a large fireman called Sam but all that happened was that we got no eggs at Sharjah-such happy days!!
