I ORGANISE return visits back to the Egyptian Canal Zone where I also served in the 1950s along with thousands of other service personnel.

I am again organising a group visit back to the Egyptian Canal Zone and know that many service people who live in your circulation area were stationed there during the troubled times of the 50s.

Many of our service personnel died and are buried in the cemeteries that we visit: Ismailia; Fayid; Mosacar; Tel-el-kebir.

I can arrange for photos to be taken of any friends or loved ones graves if any of your readers would like me to.

Also if any of your readers would like to join us on our next group could they please contact me for details.

We will be visiting Cairo and staying at a hotel in Fayid overlooking the Great Bitter Lakes and visiting others places in the Canal Zone.

I am limited to 30 places on this reunion visit due to the fact it is still a military restricted area – spouses are welcome.
