"Other" Defence Related Fire Services Cap Badges/Insignia
Hi all, Would like to know if anyone out there has information, photo's or actual examples of the following subject matter?
There are plenty of examples (some in albums on here) of defence related fire services such as the Defence Fire Service, Army/War Dept/Admiralty/Air Force Dept Fire Services, but I am interested as to what (if any) cap badges/cloth insignia were/are worn by the following? Airfield Fire Services on the old Rolls Royce Airfields (such as leavesden in Hertfordshire) Royal Ordnace Factory Fire Service? (I've seen a cloth badge for this!) Fire Services on former Royal Ordnance Factory sites now owned by BAE Systems? Gibraltar Naval Dockyard, did/do they have their own Fire Service in the same way that they have their own Services Police/Security Police? MoD Procurment Executive Fire Service Defence Research Agency Fire Prevention Service Atomic Weapons Establishment Fire & Rescue Service QinetiQ Fire & Rescue Service Airfield Fire Services on BAE Airfields at Warton and Walney, BAE Airbus Airfield at Broughton (managed by Blue Arrow Services) (the other BAE/Air Bus airfield at Filton is run by Serco!) BAE Barrow in Furness has its own retained "Yard" Fire Service run by Securitas Security Serivices, but does anyone know if the original "in house" Barrow Shipyard Fire Service had its own badges? Fire and Rescue services on military airfields and facilities currently provided by Serco Services and Babcock Group Aerospace. Many RAF and MoD airfields contracted out their Fire Fighting Services in the late 80's and I have read that Bombardier Aerospace and Sodexo facilities also provided contract fire fighters? Falmouth Docks, has its own Police Force but a few years ago when I was working down there I noticed a disused building that was the old Dockyard Fire Station with its own crest on the door ! did they have their own cap badge like the Docks Police? Any answered appreciated. Regatds Tony |
