I was Stationed at "West Raynham" and lived at 55 amq at the time i was an SAC,with MT squadron,
I have very fond memories of my time there,
It is so sad to see it now in a derelict& disused
state,
I remember the "Vtol "vertical take off and landing
Detatchment being there and the Bombing of the "Torry Canyon" by the Hunter Jets,
there was a Flt Lt Hains(known as 7G Hains
because of his take off power,

I was a boy of 7 who lived at WR in 1950 to 1952....We used to get taken to the village school in Helhoughton by a RAF covered lorry.I would love to hear from anybody who also went to the village school or who lived on the camp at that time.
