Kevin Coble: Massachusetts. RAF Bentwaters/RAF Woodbridge, 1983-89, 81st SPS. My tour of duty at the twin-bases was one of the best experiances of my life. The friends I made there, were the best! I will never forget those Saturday afternoon football games, playing in front of all those folks at the RAF Woodbridge field. Any Cripple Creeksters out there that remember me, send a E-mail.

His name is Chief Master Sergeant James Flynn New Alexandria, PA. It would be nice to here from anyone that knew him or his wife & 3 girls.

David Comerford: Jacksonville, NC. RAF Bentwaters, July 1979-July 1982. I loved being stationed at RAF Bentwaters. In fact it was my favorite assignment in my 20 year career. I worked in the Dining Hall and met some wonderful people, both military and civilian. Folks I will always remember with fondness. I worked the night of Dec 27, 1980 when the UFOs were seen and knew all the peaple involved. LT Col Halt always gave me a ride between bases if he saw me at the bus stop. He spent a lot of time at the chow hall also, he was a very nice guy. The chaplains were a special lot too. Jim King and the rest made life for this single airman far from home so much nicer. Oh the memories, I will never forget those 3 years. 12/05/00
Michael B Combs: Gualala, CA. RAF Bentwaters, Jan 1970-Feb 1975, 81st Combat Support Group. Arrived as a 2nd Lt (6 yrs enl-left 5 years later as a "permanent" Captain). Wing Budget Officer with late wife Marilynn and 3 sons. The 67th ARRS had arrived a few months before, housing was tight. Worked with UK Civ Arthur Sharman, Walberswick, and TSgt Phil Ashcraft. Burned a lot of overtime to put out the budget. Phil's replacement was the late TSgt (SMSgt)Robert K Clough, who also did a great job as manager of the Rod & Gun Club. Boss was Comptroller Lt Col Lenore Henson, soon promoted to Colonel, promotion party at my house, The Street Farm, Saxmundham. Later worked for Lt Col James Frise, great boss, and five good wing commanders. Col Charles Word pinned on star there, best commander I ever had. I was the Budget Officer for five years, best job I ever had, on by far the best base I ever served on. I had season tickets for Ipswich Town during their glory years. Played on the base soccer team. Had fish and chips each Friday lunch with Art Sharman and friends at the O Club, and great hamburgers at the Top Three Club take out. Memorable people, Iris Fletcher, UK civilian employee Civil Engineers, Herr Wilfred Robst, Nonappropriated Funds, and many others whose names will come back to me as soon as I post this. To say that this was a special place at a special time does not do justice to how much I loved my job, the bases, fellow Yanks, the towns and townspeople, British TV. I am so happy with the memories, and so sad I can't do it all over again. 03/25/06

Jerry Cornwall: I was a cab driver for the J J Cars company, and following companies right up to the base's decommissioning in 1993. In 1994 I had to go into the Ipswich hospital for back surgery, while there I met and became friendly with an SP dormed on RAF Woodbridge called Walt Im. Sorry but that's the only name he gave me that I can remember? I recall he had seriously injured his ankle in a fall from his Harley on the back roads between Tunstall and Wanttisden. It would be nice to hear from him again. Maybe he remembers the jokes and laugh's that we had with the staff on our ward. Also the other serviceman who had a bad car smash at Bromswell. Remember the Brut aftershave joke that went slightly wrong? If you are out there get in touch through these pages. I will keep looking in on the missing persons page 2-3 times a month. I will look for Walt to Jerry, OK, and to all those that worked at RAF Bentwaters between 1985-1993. 12/30/00 I wonder if you could help me please I'm looking for a SP officer named Walter (???), (Walt for short) who was hospitalised in heath rd hospital, after a motorcycle accident on the back roads of RAF Bentwaters between the village's of Wanttisdon & Tunstall. We shared a lot of laugh's together for example (nurses who do the split's to ground level even in uniform! and the birthing of elephant's & hippo's). If Walt see's this he will know, and remember who I am. The last time we met was when I visited him at his barracks's at RAF Woodbridge. I worked for the on base cab firm of JJ cars. If I remember rightly he was riding a Harley Davidson at the time of his accident. Thank you for any help you can give. It would be nice to chat with him again, just to see how he is doing. 3/30/01

My final position in the 91st FIS was in Technical Inspection. We Lived at 2 Yoeman Rd, Felixstowe. It was pretty tough on the wives in the unit since it was difficult to get a sufficient amount of Hot water to wash clothing, and bathe. We had a washing machine, (an old wringer type). With 2 small children in cloth diapers she had a tough time of it. Many evenings I had to finish the wash while she got supper ready so we could use the bath tub to bathe. We had only fireplaces to heat our quarters. An area around the fire place was reserved for drying diapers. (Space heaters are dangereous around small children). 9/24/03

We talked to another Yank who was guarding the flight line at RAF Woodbridge and he said the RAF was using the base for training but not flying. There was a rumor that RAF Bentwaters might have a new life as a commercial passenger and cargo airport (never happened...Jim)but I have not heard any more about it.
