When you were stationed on Gan, did you make it to Diego Garcia? Just
wondering if you ever visited, or took photos of DG "back in the day".

Sorry Gordon,

I went to Gan via Butterworth from Changi, went back to Singapore on
leave, directly and then left via Khormaksar (spelling?) Aden. Gan
was only a short way from the equator (it still is!) and I was told by
the Captain of one of the SAR Target Towing Launches that we had
"crossed the line" one day on a Sarah test run. That was my first
time!

Regards George.
