You have a great site and should be proud of your efforts to preserve Invergordon's history. My involvement's 1948/49, unfortunately without photographs. I spent nearly a year in the RAF Air Sea Rescue base, that was known as the dock. In this time my appreciation of the people of Invergordon, particularly the girls of my age (19) - Marie especially, as good friends. But where are they all? Surely I'm not the sole survivor? The Scottish dances in the hall served me in good stead for many years into the future as a near master of cultural Scot's dancing. If I am interested in pursuing this possible line of inquiry, it is because my time in Invergordon ceased to exist after late 1949, and I am reluctant end it there. I have vivid memories of the time I spent there and would like to hear from any one who could fill in a few gaps: Invergordon in the years I was there, when it was a village(?) before the oil people(!) and after the Royal Navy base, as a base for the Fleet. A delightful town of genuine people and a few ex prisoners-of-war of the Luftwaffe. For me a delightful experience. Eric H
