| In the early 60's my father was in 3rd RHA.
His name is Peter Biggs.
I am is son, Trevor, and I am trying to find out as much as I can about him in his Army days.
Dad was not the sort of bloke to talk about his work and I just want to know as much as I can.
Can you help me please.
Thank you all. | |

Go to the home page of this site (not the forum)
Click on locations, click on Detmold, click on Hobart Barracks.
You should then come to a lengthy article, with a series of photographs describing various aspects of life in the barracks. Our gunner contributors will confirm whether 3 RHA were still equipted with Sexton or had been issued with its replacement Abbot which was mounted on a FV 430 series variant chassis in your father's time | |
