My thanks to Mark Wallace for these three photos below, which his father took in 1970. Mark lived on Spitfire Road, RAF Tengah from 68 to 71. At the time he left, Mark was 12 years old.

Tengah Primary school cricket team 1970. We won the Singapore primary school championships that year, proud to say I was captain. Ed Sweeney was the teacher and Bernie Crossey was the wicketkeeper.
I am seated front row second from the right, it would be great to find someone that was in the photo or know someone that is.

My thanks to Gary Clift for these photos.  Gary said that "My late father Peter Albert James Clift was with 60 Squadron RAF based in Singapore in 1949/50/51 when they converted from Spitfires to Vampires. Originally I think they were based at Sembawang before moving to Tengah."
