From another of the{ Chosen Men}

At the time you state i was in A Company assigned to FV432 13B, I have since heard that the bks in MINDEN has been pulled down, I done two tours of MINDEN one with 2RGJ and the other with 3LI, it is good that you all still try to keep in touch as it is all about to end on the 2nd FEBUARY 2007 so it is more important that we keep the ROYAL GREENJACKET name alive
