Stirling Lines
editRe: "In 1960, the SAS moved to a former Royal Artillery boys' training unit, Bradbury Lines in Hereford, which was renamed in 1984 to Stirling Lines in honour of the regiment's founder, Lieutenant Colonel David Stirling." This is not quite correct, when the SAS first moved into the new camp, the Officers quarters along with the WOs and sergeant's mess were named 'Stirling Lines' with the rest of the billets for troopers and corporals retaining the name Bradbury Lines. I wasn't there in 1984, when the whole of the camp was called Stirling Lines. Ron Barker (talk) 07:11, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
- Can you find a citation for that? Dormskirk (talk) 09:22, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry, I just know when I joined the regiment in 1965 the Officers' WOs and Sergeants quarters were called Stirling Lines. There was signpost saying Stirling Lines. They were situated at the top end of the camp. It is possible they never told the War Office/Ministry of Defence. That would not be surprising at all! Ron Barker (talk) 11:49, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
