Roman Camp
My dad was a Sgt in the medical corp, I was about 12/13 at the time, and we lived on an upper story of a maisonette, I suppose they were called, in Jerome Square. I have memories of "the Jerome Square gang" doing raiding parties to the McCadam Square bonfire to take wood for our fire for Nov 5th. Playing in the air raid shelters in the center of the Squareand playing at Caesar's Camp where there was a tunnel which nobody had the nerve to enter. I used to go to the Ritz Cinema Saturday morning matinees, and sometimes going to the Odeon under cover as I was in "the Ritz gang". We got posted to Hanover for a short while, and came back to live in a bungalow with a large garden in Fleet, where I went to a old school, and then transferred to a new one that had just been built.
