...When in India/Burma did you ever come across the battalion of the Green Howards that was out there?...

Sorry, but no. Our strips were always 40-50 miles back from the fighting, so we never came into contact.

When I was at Thornaby, my Tech/Radar was Flt Lt Bob Schroder. He had the Adj's OMQ at the Green Howards Territorial Battalion Drill Hall in Middlesbrough (their Adj was single and lived in the Mess). We only met them at Mess Balls and the like.
