Gibraltar (Not Gib Barracks)

1st Fortress STRE

This is the main page for the squadron or unit. More info will be added here as I get the time, but for now it's a "base" for establishing comms with other members of the same unit. You can post messages for other members of the same unit using the messages link above this blurb, and you can also search for other members of this unit. Once you find them, click on their name to send an email direct to them. Please note that this website doesn't "remember" your emails, they are sent direct from you to the recipient without sappers.co.uk getting in the way. That helps you get in touch quickly and it keeps everything simple and free. Have fun. Gordon

I have nothing to put here as I don't even know what this unit did.  If you can tell me, I'll happily put it on here for interest.  REgards, Gordon

I've been told about this unit tonight - 22 months after I started the site.  Hope I didn't miss too many of you who wanted it.  Remember, I don't know about all the units, I rely on you to tell me about them.  Thanks.  Gordon

In 1963 there were 3 units based in South Barracks in Gibraltar:
!st Fortress Sqn responsible for Power stations maintenance (Calpe Hole PS & Windmill Hill PS)
HQ Sqn
32 Engineer Sqn. Tunnelers
Hope this helps.  Brendan Healey
