Not sure if it's Urdu or Nepalese Brum, but I do know that a rough translation would be "Abandon hope all ye who enter here". affraid

And that`s the right leg of Eddie Holness that is about to get damp.. Laughing

Gordon,

Talking about Warrant Officers, Eddie Holness was in my opinion one of the best. The other Warrant Officer in 7 Sigs was Tom Joyce in 1 Sqn - both great guys.

I remember Tom well...he took my MPC 1..Barsteward.lol...I didn`t know my left leg could move so fast.We were in DMS boots by then,but he wanted the same noise as studded ammo boots..memories, memories, memories.

Subject: Re: Warrant Officer 22/1/2012, 10:48

Tom Joyce made RSM and then he emigrated down under. Don't know any other details but is is one of the best SSM's I have ever had. The other two were Jock Fisher of 206 Sig Sqn Munster ( later met him in Singapore) & Eric Webster of 249 Sig sqn Singapore. He finished as a Major (QM) and we meet every year at the Harrogate Association Reunion.

Steve,

thanks for that great endorsement on Eric Webster. I'm sure he would be chuffed.
