Edited to add: I now know it was Waterloo Barracks Munster. | |

Graham Harry Bolton Egg? Cookhouse? What was that about? I was attached to the Rocking Horses 77/79 when they were at Topcliffe doing trials on the FH70 and the Foden gun tractor, but they were using the 5.5" still. Had a super time with them, a great bunch of lads. Had some good jolly's too, Cyprus with B battery was fab. Also got early promotion after being recommended by the CO. | |
