14 field survey Sqn I remember playing football on the square (never used for drill) in front of the blocks against 3 map depot I don't think we ever lost.

so right .....I don't remember marching either.........we had a good team ....we went to the football tournament for royal engineers in north germany but we got sabotaged the night before in drinking contests........steve

Played on a Sunday afternoon in the summer. Ball was kicked over into the "allotments" quite a few times so that the rather nice young ladies that were there sun bathing would have to throw it back LOL.

I used to be a printer .........1966.......best fun I ever had...great mates hope the old gang are still goin.......stevie cran

The t,o,w team was set up in 1985 it only took us 2 years to become BAOR outdoor champions dose anyone remember It was hardwork but great fun was had by all after each event we even held the record with 16 sigs for the longest hold without movement Im sure if the seargent major is still around he will not forget it as it was the only time he took part in a compotition
