I served with 11 Plt C Coy 1980 - 83. Was Plt Comds driver. Did Tidworth, Westminster Barracks Minden and was with the Int Cell North Howard St Mill along with Sgt Seeney, Darcy Evans and Dave Murray. Can remember big Clem, Stan Bowes (Bowers)? Ken Pettingale? Leon Baker, Shane Donnelly, Andy Larkin, Dovey, Geoff and Steve Edwards and could do with a reminder of the rest of the lads from that era. Any help or contacts and photos really appreciated.
Hi mate, I remember a few of these although me & Leon Baker knocked about a bit. I did P.T.I. course with him, then transfered together to 1 RGJ from Warminster.
Sadly though, I had heard a rumour he may have passed away in Germany. Putting his parts around with the fraulines, caught up with him I believe.
If I hear anything else, I will certainly let you know, all the best
