Did any of you know my father, Sergeant Major Bednarek, at the STS station? He was there from 1969 to 1972.

😉 Dear Yves,

Thanks for all these memories about my dad BNK, and if you don’t claim copyright, I’ll post the photo on the forum. So Francis, do you recognize your dad’s buddy??? Watch out, everyone! My brothers are about to show up on the forum.

😎 I got a call earlier this evening from Francis, who’s put in a lot of effort into his research. I’m reaching out to my brother—he knew way more people than I did because he was really well-known in Ivat for his judo skills when he was just 11. In ’69, after I got back to school in France, I had one or more pen pals, including Nathalie Gac.

😎 Hi, it's Patrick, the son of Sergeant Major "Radio" BNK, aka BEN, in the French Air Force (Romain BEDNAREK) at the S.T.S base in Ivato. I did indeed know Nathalie GAC in 1969 at Amporaha camp—it seems her father was a captain.

Below are some photos: my brother Jean-Marc, my brother Thierry, and my little sister Emmanuelle (in front of our tent).

The black-and-white photo: that’s our arrival in Fascene in July 1969.
