Yes. It is surprising how many names i know but did not realise they were ex denbury especially mick fogg with whom i served in 14 sigs. I now work for the constabulary and live in great yarmouth. I am a captain in 5 comms co(v)aged 58 and am waiting to be mobilised probably in july. I was trumpet major (j/cpl) in denbury and played the fanfare to start the first ever ten tors. Since leaving denbury i served at 224 sig sqn 13 sig regt 9 sig regt 14 sig regt and left the regular army in 1983. I am in regular contact with sigs personnel and will provide addresses if anyone requires. I remember lots of those from the band mick willoughby who i think came from lincoln and fisher the drum major (junior) of course. I also remember a lad by the name of jim? Humphrey who came to denbury from beverly. I believe his dad was qm or something. I really enjoy the reunion pages and check them every day for names i remember.

The site gets better each time i visit it tony. The gallery is certainly a trip down memory lane although i only spent a year at denbury but pete my elder brother who also did time there managed to put the fear of god in to me prior to my arrival. Nice to see mick fogg s message-hi mick how s life?
