Subject - HMS Jufair. Submitted by Alan Barry.
In September 2016 Navy News there is an article on Page 44 headlined 'Did you serve at Jufair
Apparently the Navy is asking for dits, photos, etc. from anyone who served at the previous HMS Jufair. Info to be emailed to [email protected] and they will forward on to UKMCC
I didn't serve there but was on HMS Intrepid taking off the final staff when Jufair closed - 1971 - I think!!
