An Eastern Flavour!

This is the second large group photo we have posted in our "Who, When and Where" column in recent weeks.  This time we have 48 people in the photo, and once again, no prize for guessing which Division it is.  But can you tell us who is in it and when it was taken?  

We are publishing some of these large photos because it gradually becomes more and more difficult to identify our old friends and colleagues with the passage of time.  As quite often happens with larger groups,  the rows are not neatly separated so we have done our best to number each person and would ask that you bear in mind that the back two rows are being listed as one.  We have also  provided three blow-ups to assist you in picking out just who is who,

Front Row -   1. ________  2 _______ 3 _______ 4_______ 5 _______ 6 _______ 7 _______ 8 _______
9 _______  10 _______  11 _______
2nd Row  -  12 _______  13 _______  14 _______ 15 _______ 16 _______ 17 _______ 18 _______
19 _______ 20 _______ 21 _______ 22 _______ 23 _______ 24 _______
Third Row -  25 _______ 26 _______ 27 _______ 28 _______ 29 _______ 30 _______ 31 _______ 32 _______ 33 _______
Back Rows -  34 _______ 35 _______ 36 _______ 37 _______ 38 _______ 39 _______ 40 _______ 41 _______
42 _______ 43 _______ 44 _______ 45 _______ 46 _______ 47 _______ 48 _______

We received the following from Brian Robinson which might be helpful:-
These are my idea's
#27 Lenny Crichton
30 u/k
37 is Chris COX not Don Friend
42 u/k
22 Leon Fubler?
32 Crickshank?
43 Brian Robinson
46 Chris Jones  he changed his name later on.
also I think Alex MacDonald is wrong looks like Stuart Kirkpatrick
Brian
Editors note  -  Re Brian's suggestion that #32 might be Crickshank.  Our records indicate that we had a Gary Dennis Cruichshank (that's the way it's spelled in the record) in the Service. Can anyone confirm if it is P.C. Cruichshank?  We are trying to contact Alex MacDonald re being #33.  Any further comments on Brian's input? 
28th February 2014  -  
We have been in touch with Franz Williams to check if he is #27 but Franz said it's definitely not him.   Brian Robinson has confirmed that he is definitely #43 (partially obscured). 
At this point we have no suggestions for #27 and #30.  And we would like confirmation on #22 Leon Fubler, 32 Gary Cruickshank,  42 Desmond Waite, and 46 Chris Jones.
 
3rd March 2014
We have no been in touch with Devonish Small who still works in Eastern Division, and who has been very helpful. He confirms that #34 is not Devonish but is Volney Welch.  Devonish also believes that #27 is Lenny Crichton,  #22 is Roger Stovell (Vaughan's brother), #46 is definitely Christopher (Jones) Terry, and #42 is probably Kenville Savoury.
If Devonish is correct with his information, and we believe that he is, then we had just two names left.  No-one has yet put a name to #30, but George Babb has just confirmed that  # 32 is Gary Dennis Cruickshank.  So we are down to just the one.
5th March 2014
George Babb has just confirmed that #32 is Gary Cruickshank.  
 
24th April 2014
Although there was some confusion about whether #30 was Chris Pearce or Dave King,  we have now resolved the issue after receiving an email from Jo Pearce who, in addition to identifying her husband earlier,  has now explained that Chris briefly went through a moustache phase which appears to have caused the confusion as to whether or not  #30 was him due to the fact that no-one could rceall him having a moustache.
