Brian Streetly was seen off in style yesterday with a packed church, Cremation and Wake afterwards at the nearby pub. Brian had lots of interests all of which were represented including a dozen or so members of the East London RSA, along with lots of his family; wife, sister, children and grandchildren etc. Rob Dyball with The East London Branch Standard led the coffin into the church and again at the Crematorium. With it being Remembrance Weekend, there was lots of poppy displays all over the church which seemed very appropriate for the funeral. RIP Brian

re 3698: Derek Conway
Hi Derek! Well, as I was the youngest member of 210 Signal Squadron at the time I had almost given up on finding any other members. How are you? Well, I hope. Time has moved on and I am retired but still involved with the Royal Signals Assn. I was even a Sgt instructor for a while with the Cadet Force, becoming a weapons instructor! Regards, Clive. |

Yes young Napier I most certainly do remember you as no doubt you will recall me as I was also M Troop, as the radio Sgt.
Ps I liked your piece on Crownhill Fort. |

re.3689) Bill (Jock) Davidson.
24 Brigade & Signal Squadron (210) was my first posting too. I joined Mike Troop in August or September 1969 and was shipped out to Ballykelly almost immediately! First night there all the E.D.s were on guard and a generator failed at one of the rebros. That was the last time any E.D.s did any guards in N.I. I remember that we returned to the UK on February 14th 1970 on an LSL. When were you there? |
