" Hi David Yeah, I think it was Netheravon back then. It’s still used as the main UK Parachute centre for Free Fall. Also at Netheravon is the School of Infantry for Support Weapons, (ie) Mortars, Anti Tank and Recce. I was on a Mortar course there back in 1987 when we had that freak hurricane in the UK. Spent most of the night clearing trees and debris off the local roads. Yogi. "
