christine liava'a Posted 3 February , 2004 Share Posted 3 February , 2004 I have a George Paulin in the North Sea Engineers. Can anyone tell me who the North Sea Engineers were, and what they did? Were they part of the Royal Engineers, or the Navy, or something else? Anything about George too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HERITAGE PLUS Posted 4 February , 2004 Share Posted 4 February , 2004 Christine Your man could have been in the Royal Engineers Corps of Submarine Miners and have been working the the North Sea Defences.

HERITAGE PLUS Posted 7 May , 2004 Share Posted 7 May , 2004 I came across this whilst looking for something else. Photo RWG 6 and its narrative may be of interest. Dave http://www.capefam.freeserve.co.uk/photos96.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christine liava'a Posted 7 May , 2004 Author Share Posted 7 May , 2004 Thanks, that was useful. I had previously understood "miners" as being people who dug in the ground, and so was envisaging underwater tunnels or similar, not mines that blow up.

Neil Clark Posted 8 May , 2004 Share Posted 8 May , 2004 I think that they worked on the gas and oil pipelines in the North Sea! - Only Joking Ha Ha... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
