My late father was a petty officer in the Royal Navy, he spent some time instructing at Dingli. My mother and I joined him in 1950, and we lived at Zabbar, 151, Sanctuary Street, the landlord was a poliveman by the name of Attard. We later moved to G'zira. My brother was born at the military hospital at Imtarfa Military hospital.

[@PierreFarrugia]

Wow, nice, I am from Zabbar too

SAC Dave Tupling ex RAF Dingli I was stationed there in transmitters section 1955 to 1957 and one of our jobs was t.o go down there every week to run up the station standby Diesel generators for test. Dingli was a great posting.

[@PierreFarrugia]

Did you work at Benaghsa too ?

[@davetupling9989]

@@PierreFarrugia Hi no I was only on Dingli as I was stationed there and worked and was a member of the TX / RX section staff. As I said earlier 203SU RAF Dingli was a great camp to be posted too and my time there was great. Before my posting to Malta I had been stationed at SWSC RAF Hawthorn this was a total underground signals unit and part of the UK network. If you look up RAF Hawthorn, RAF Rudlow Manor or Burlington City on the net you will see the underground system as it was a massive area underground and security wise very big at the time but De classified now.

[@PierreFarrugia]

@@davetupling9989 Thanks will have a look

[@PierreFarrugia]

Hopefully we will be adding some new ww2 underground

[@davetupling9989]

@@PierreFarrugia Hi There is a good read up about SWSC among the info and you will be supprised at it I am sure. I worked there but was not aware of some of the things which were housed down there as security wise we only moved around our section. You will see the old main switch boards where I did work sending traffic to where it was intended to go in UK or abroad, I also worked in the telprinter rooms and ticker tape area. I spent 18 months there during the cold war. When not underground we had our own rooms above ground at RAF Rudlow Manor but were not part of that station.
