I played Rugby will Major Mound, both in Germany and during our tour of Lurgan in 74-75, he was a great chap and so easy going, always treated you as an equal on the field, maybe he didnt like the hard tackles....

Mr Mound was also one of my troop Officers in 39 Sqn in the 60s so it was great meeting him again in 4 Sqn. While in 39 he was part of the boxing team. He was out classed but I never saw a braver fight any where.

Re: Post 25 (Trev Mitchell)
Could that have been Mike Mound? He was the OC during the Lurgan Tour 74/75. He is living in that part of the world - last heard.

Whilst having a break at Hopwood Park services today (22nd May) I saw what I thought was a familiar looking face. I approached said face and asked if he had served in the Engineers he replied yes, I asked him if he was OC 4 Sqn again he replied yes, it was Maj Micheal Mahn/Mann ? The rugby playing OC from 1971? Obviously retired now and living not far from the Schoo of Infantry at Warminster. Small world eh?

Great to see a site for the old 4 Fld. I was there from 1965 till 1966. Should have joined the navy as I might have gotten out a bit more. I often wonder where all the old lads got to. Still, I had a great time, well most of the time anyway.
Keep up the good work

Served with the Sqn in Nienburgh from 1962 to 1966. Great to see a Sqn web site. The Sqn is now in Ripon and how weird I live about 5 miles from Claro Barracks where they are based. I guess there may be a lot of old pals who will now attending Ripon weekend. Lots of ex sappers live in the area and the weekend is usually very well attended. Ripon REA are the organisers.
