My father Rfn Robert King (deceased) served 1974 to 1986 in 2 RGJ C Coy 9 plt and then I Coy anti-tanks.

He served in
Northern Ireland and Minden, Germany and Gibraltar, before returning to Liverpool when he left the army. His best mate was Robert Mitchell "Mitch" whom still lives in Liverpool. Im looking for people that may have known my dad, I have only a few photos of him, some with details on the back. I also have some news paper cuttings and photos and I remember stories that my dad told about the people in the clippings here are some of there names

I would like to hear from any one that remembers my father or my mother Tina King as she was known then. I remember we used to have a house full of squaddies on a Sunday for roast, especially Mitch and Gurka - I was sorry to hear about his long illness and passing, my late condolences to his friends and family,

I would also like to contact Kevin and Kay Parker, I believe they now live near Cornwall, and also "taffy" OBrien, my mum and dad were godparents to his children in Minden, If this is you please get in touch, I know my mum would also like to hear from either the Parkers or the OBriens.

 

Thanks to Dave Moloney, Vic Palmer, Ged Monks, Peter Manning, Huddy Hudson, Leo Massey, Mark Lydiat, John Helbert, Gary Jones and Clive Biddlecombe for their help so far.
Thanks for reading this

Hi, My name is Colin Bedden (Bedknobs) and remember your father and your mum very well, We used to go out and have a drink together at 'Vernons' in Minden and go back to the flat after and have a drink and a boiled neck of lamb, your message has brought back so many memories, and am so very very sorry to hear of your loss, I will try to see if I can find any photos amongst my collection. All our best Colin and Marilyn Bedden
