	RAF Greenham Common
		RAF Greenham Common is a former World War II and NATO Cold War airfield located 45 miles west of London, and 2 miles southeast of Newbury, in Berkshire England.
		On 23 April 1951, RAF Greenham Common was made available to the United States Air Force by the British Ministry of Defence as a Strategic Air Command base, with joint operations with the Royal Air Force units.
		It is interesting to note that whilst the protesters were cutting fences at Greenham, RAF Welford (which is not far from Greenham) was being used to store equipment and allegedly also some of the missiles, as it had the ability to fly it in and out as well as possibly using road or rail links.

	Newsletter 19
		RAF Uetersen was handed back to the German authorities in November 1955, four months after 755 Signals Unit had departed to Hambühren, and the Luftwaffe took over in the following April.
		We assume she arrived because all the RAF staff changed from uniform and trainers to better uniform and shoes; we weren’t allowed to view the touchdown because “HRH wouldn’t want to see a load of disgruntled people, dressed in green peering at her from the one small window in the lounge”.
		At 1:00pm the same RAF Warrant Officer, he now had a sleeping bag with him, told us that the plane was completely knackered, there was no replacement and we may get away on Saturday.
