p-38 pilot, how old are you????

I was an Articifer in the Fleet Air Arm trained on Engines and Airframes for fixed wing aircraft. With impeccable timing I qualified as they prepared to dispose of the last traditional carriers and before they purchased the Sea Harrier.
So while I went on the Ark Royal during training, I didn't get the chance to serve on her when I finished. Served time on the Helicopter Cruiser Tiger and the Hermes plus various ground bases. Spent time on Cyprus in 1974 when the Greeks and Turks were fighting over it to assist with the evacuation of civilians.
Left soon after as they wanted to transfer us to the Engine Room or Subs and that wasn't for me.
Sole claim to fame. For a short time I helped maintain the Seahawk now flying from Duxford. At the time she didn't fly and was used for the training of deck crew at Culdrose.

Cool, what type of mortar did you use?
Medvedya
Master Sergeant
Probably lime mortar - 3:1 sand and lime, making the brickwork more tolerant of movement.
