Annual Camp With 39th Signal Regiment At Penhale

A Memory of Holywell Bay.

Penhale Camp is situated towards the northern end of Penhale Sands and the Ministry of Defence owns this which is used as an army training area.

In the summer of 1969 I had just transferrred to 39th Signal Regiment and was billeted at this camp which I remember as really great! Excellent summer weather helped of course. Off duty hours allowed time for sand, sea and surfing!! Our training activities included firing with the old 762 self-loading rifles and familiarisation with helicopter flights over water.

After a couple of weeks here I had sunburn from the exposure to Cornwall sun and ringing ears from the rifles.
