Trooper R Martin d. 191841 viewsWhat does Trooper Martin have to do with Malta's part in World War One?

He has become famous 100 years later.

On This Day 482 viewsLt George Carroll - Hero of Mosta - died 23 May 2012
Lt Carroll (pictured left) is believed to have been responsible for tackling more unexploded bombs than any other Royal Engineers bomb disposal officer in World War II, across all theatres of war.
Remarkably, he was the only bomb disposal officer from the Army, Navy and Air Force active during the siege of Malta not to be decorated, though this did not bother him.

Hal Far - HMS Falcon300 viewsMy father Len Reed was in the Royal Navy when he became in charge of a small unit of the Fleet Air Arm at Hal Far in 1950-53. I think he went up in planes fixing electrical faults connected with the radios and communications. (He didn't care much for that part !)
