Accompanying music on each page. Please wait a moment.
In logging on to this web site,the chances are that you also spent some time in the Canal Zone or perhaps you know someone who did. After more than 50 years I decided to show some of my pictures from that time together with just a few notes of my experiences. If these happen to ring any bells why not add some notes yourself or even e-mail me at mr.a.s.york@ntlworld.com
Last Post & Evensong.....Almost every night when I lived in the tent lines, I listened to this radio station closing down piece of music played on the local Forces Broadcasting Channel on my homemade wireless crystal set. The valve was obtained from Prov 3 stock and some one found me an old phone handset which I connected to the valve and tucked under my pillow so that I could listen to the radio in bed without disturbing anyone else. I only missed when on guard or overnight escort duty.
