I was based at West Raynham 1988-1991 whilst serving with the RAF Police.Our police section HQ was in the large control tower and we had another entry -control room at the gates leading into the Bloodhound missile site(boring job).We used to have to do security checks of classified material cabinets in the small hours of the morning in loads of different buildings around the camp and I swear you could feel a spooky presence in some of them.Particular memories are of the large-calibre german machine-gun holes in the door steel framework of No 1 hangar,the former station morgue and missile servicing flight HQ on the bloodhound site,where some of the guard dogs refused to go into and where you always felt cold no matter what the weather!
