Looking For Don Davies
I never lived in Southampton or have I ever been there However I was friendly with a lad who hailed from Shirley. His name is Don Davies if my memory serves me right. We were stationed at an Ordnance Field Park in Deepcut in Surrey during the year 1952. The unit went to Bournemouth in September and several of us were posted to other units of the RAOC. I went to Chilwell barracks near Nottingham and I think Don went to Bicester with several other lads. Don was a good snooker player and we held competitions in the sports room. Instead of going nearly half a mile for our breakfeast in the morning to the army cook house in Blackdown camp over the road, we just popped over the road to a lovely warm cafe which appreciated especially during some of the bitter winter weather. I have been trying to get in touch with other lads from my army days. It would be nice to find out how they are getting along these days as pensioners. Les May. e-mail lsmy59@aol.com
