Sparkwell Naval Camp : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sparkwell Naval Camp
The Naval camp in Sparkwell, Plymouth, Devon was set up during the Second World War (1939–1945) in Tin Wood in the small parish of Sparkwell. Sparkwell is a small village just outside Plymouth, in the county of Devon, England. ==Set up== In 1942 a rest camp for Naval personnel was set up in Tin Wood, an area of woodland immediately south of the village of Sparkwell, beside the Sparkwell Golf Course. The village was dominated by the camp with their loudspeaker system could be heard echoing through the wood and the village day and night. The Naval camp was commanded by Lieutenant Whitworth and was primarily intended to provide a place of rest and recuperation for the survivors of ships that had been sunk by enemy action. When this rest was over, these men would be sent back to fight again on different ships. The Naval camp consisted of 20 Nissen-type huts for the soldiers' living quarters, a NAAFI (Navy, Army and Air Force Institute) canteen which was also used as a cinema and sometimes a dance hall as well as a sick bay with a morgue.
