Comments: Steve Craddock suggested I post on this site Hello A matter has come to my attention that I am hoping that someone there might be able to assist. A few days ago I met a survivor of the Holocaust, Magda (Mozes) Herzberger. Magda was speaking to a group of 6th grade children at my son's elementary school in Phoenix, Az , USA . I was very interested in attending so I went and brought a book with me that I had recently rented from the public library, "Remembering: Voices of the Holocaust", by Lyn Smith. The book contains quotes culled from the audio files at the Imperial War Museum , London , UK . During the course of her talk with the kids, Magda related how she had been interned at Auschwitz-Birkenau after selection by Mengele. She also talked about the death march from Auschwitz to Bremen and finally to Bergen Belsen. She talked of collapsing into the pile of corpses at Bergen-Belsen and not having the strength remaining to extract herself and finally of being pulled from the pile

Comments: Hi lads can anyone who was in 30sqn between 1975 and 1977 remember who the QM was. He was a young sapper plant op in Belsen at the end of the war. I cant remember his name but remember his handlebar wiskers. Jimmy Dee took over from him. Bill Essex, British Soldier, Royal Engineers, Bergen-Belsen Craig McGowan who lives in the States has asked if we can help him.

Comments:Hi Guys. Not many of you will remember me, but I was with 33 Indep Fd Sqn RE in Antrim from 1976-78. I was usually hidden away in the Design Office (next to the clothing store) and may have been the chap who took your mugshot when you first arrived. I worked pretty much on my own, producing designs for the new 'super-sangars' and their cages. I also trained as a coxswain and piloted the dories for boat operations on the lough. Other duties included overnight stints in the Ops Room. I usually came out on night builds to do the setting out, but again you probably wouldn't have known who I was. Finally retired after the full 22 in 1994 and now work as an Architectural Technologist in the North-East. Excellent site, Andy - Well done.

The Sappers and Miners were disbanded in December of 1831. Some of them were granted 100 acres of land in Canada and some returned to England. I am looking for a William R. Broad who was one of the Sappers, Miners or Bulgars that decided to stayed in canada and was grant the land. I would appreciate it if there is anyone who knows of how I could obtain records of these people, payrolls, enlistments etc, Thanking you in Advance Susan Anderson (nee Broad)

He was, I think, in the Royal Engineers, a sapper, in the 1st world war. I have found hand-written records, but am unable to decipher some of the information, because I am unfamiliar with the terminology. If you, or someone else could help me, please email me at the above address. Thank you

Comments:May I introduce myself. My name is Eric Crozier I am a local historian and live in Lurgan County Armagh Northern Ireland. In February 1971 The British army 3rd Brigade took over the disused Jersey Kapwood factory at Kitchen Hill in the town. The army remained in the building until 1979. I note from research that this regiment served in the town. The factory which was built in 1958 by Pinehurst textiles was knocked down two years ago and is now a retail outlet. I would be very interested in hearing memories or seeing photographs of the town taken by soldiers who served here between 1971 and 1979. I would be more than happy to answer any questions anyone may have about the town as it is today. Thank you Eric Crozier lurganhistorian@yahoo.com
