ROYAL SIGNALS att 39 INFANTRY BRIGADE HQ – TEK 1952

As Remembered By Frederick Jeffrey

 

I was sent these photos by the widow of Mr. Alan Head, from York, who was a radio mechanic with me in TEK during 1952. In 1952 I was posted to Cyprus so lost contact with Alan until about 3 years ago but sadly he died soon after. During my time in TEK I was known as “Geordie”. I know all the faces but cannot name them. Perhaps someone may recognize themselves.
