Gordon Atkins (Ground Wireless Mechanic) and Jock McGarrity, an MT driver - Feb54.   Gordon was (and may still be) an active amateur radio enthusiast.   His UK callsign is G3HQG and he had a German callsign DL2VS that he used from Jever.   We shared a room at Jever and Gordon's knowledge and enthusiasm went a long way to increasing my knowledge of radio.   McGarrity was a drinking mate.   I remember very little about him except that I found out years later he had a brother serving in the RAF in Ceylon at the time.   (Thanks to Dick Endecott)
