I served for 20 years from April 1957 until April 1977, s
there may well be several elderly gentlemen who recognise my ancient face.
Perhaps a mature lady or two, I did get to know a few. My Name is Cliff
Knowles, always known as “Lofty’ due to my height of over 6ft 4ins. I served a
full tour in Germany on CMU in the days of 2nd TAF.1958 to 1961. In UK I was at
60 MU for many years, and in Singapore, RAF Tengah from Oct ’64, to April ’67.
My last posting was to RAF Scampton on the Vulcans, working in the Dambusters
hangar. In all I worked on over 57 stations. Only one, RAF Waddington remains
open. Sad days.
