Susan and I were there twice -yes, we were very fortunate to get two tours at the best duty station a CT could ever hope for. We were there in the early 70's and after a four-year detour at Ft. Meade, we returned. Spent most of the time there in 30 Dept and lived out in the country. Still playing with antique cars and enjoying the many great antiques we found there. When we remodeled our home we designed around them! Sure wish we would have brought more home. We always have good celtic music playing and proudly wave the Scottish flag wherever we take our MGBs. What great memories. Happy motoring always, Terry Bond CTAC (Ret)

When, that is, I wasn't deployed aboard a surface skimmer (one tin can, two gators, and two bird farms, that is). I was honored to work with so many superb Spooks, and I was also blessed with the opportunity to work with the Scouts of Troop 585, the US troop on base. I wonder where Mike Best and his family are today? Oh, well...too many friends, too many years, and too many moves.

I was a CTA1, ran Personnel Office in 63, SecGru Admin 63-early 64; 32 Div Admin rest of the time. I was the "C" of the infamous "C & H" party house in Aberdeen ("H" was Paul Hickin). It would be great to hear from any shipmates from those days and see how much has changed in 45 years.

Playing on the base soccer team and participating in the U.K. Championships in Track and Field and Wrestling representing the Edzell base was a great experience. Also participating in the Braemar Gathering two years in a row with the base team with the Royal Family as spectators was quite the thrill.

I had great times at the club on the weekends, traveling the country side, meeting the nice people of Edzell, Montrose,etc. and playing golf at all the world famous courses. I was a "T" brancher. I played volleyball, softball, and was a member of the championship football team that year. I left the service 12/31/67, and went to work at the Texaco Refinery in Convent, LA, about 12 miles from where I live in St. Amant (between Baton Rouge & New Olreans, a couple miles off I10). We both retired in 2002 me after 35 years and she after 25 years as a elem. school teacher. We plan on having a long and happy retirement. If you were in Edzell during this time and would like to compare memories, please email. Take care and God Bless. Randy!

Comments:I was one of the "brats" from 74-79, as were my brothers, Martin and Adam. My time at Edzell from a 9 year old to 13 years are and will always be my most favorite childhood memories. From the YAC to the bowling alley. The green door and the swinging bridge. Even walking into the village of Edzell from the base. The "horror" stories of the "haunted castle" in Edzell. Fishing at Loch Wee or riding our bikes around "4 Mile Square". The Bicentennial celebration of 1976. The Queen's Silver Jubilee. Mr and Mrs Arenz. Miss Bright. Those times were so carefree. Looking for other "brats" from that time. I attended Halsey and we left for Virginia in summer of 1978. Thanks to another site from one the "brats" who was there at the same time as my family, I was able to reconnect with one of my best friends from that time, Grace Springer (now Faas). So please contact me if you remember me or my family.

I'm here in San Antonio eating Cherrios. She arrived in this morn and is there for a wedding. Stationed in Edzell from Sept 65-Oct 67. Medically retired in May 73. Thank You U.S. Navy. I retired from the Texas Dept of State Health Services just 2 short years ago and was, until recently doing, Adjunct teaching at a local college in San Antonio Tx. Nina is Teaching Occupational Therapy to our Troops, Army and Navy at the AMMED Academy at Ft. Sam Houston in San Antonio. Remember the U.S.S Liberty and the role that John McCain's father played in the cover-up and the fact that Sen McCain has refused to reopen an inquirie as to responsibility of this tragic event. VOTE FOR NONE OF THE ABOVE and write in one of the deceased members of the Liberty. That's my 2 cents worth.
