Savaged by sheep
Most Brüggenites, whose duties took them onto the airfield will , I'm sure, remember the Brüggen flock of sheep and the elderly Shepherd and his dog. Put a four ship on and not a bit of notice as they afterburner into the sky. Airfield attack with Dutch F5s blasting around the trees and departing via Goldstars overhead.. not even a Baa. However, if you're landing a glider over the top of them then oh boy, watch how high they could leap! I always gave myself a few feet extra because they really did get quite high.
I remember one time when our T.A. Signals Sqn. were with us on their summer camp and one signalman, working on the tower balcony, passed a remark about the clever airfield camouflage using imitation sheep and who was dumbfounded when told they were real.
