| The things we were required to do for �The Tercentenary of The Regiment� celebrations. I was in this order of dress ready to take part in a �Re-enactment� at The Albert Hall in the presence of H.M. The Queen. I was in the Front Row of the �Form Square� and we were required to �Jump Up in the air� and land in the �Kneeling Position�. I �Split my Trousers� from Front to Back, The Queen Laughed � but the RSM Didn�t � he obviously didn�t have a sense of humour. |

| Yet another �Recruit� from Brian Brenchley. This is the second one in as many weeks. The First being Walter Cottingham. In both cases it has meant firstly getting his hands on their photographs and then spending a considerable amount of time in preparing them for adding to the Site. In the case of �Frank Palmer�s� contribution, most of these were �Group Photos� also most were too large to be scanned, therefore it was necessary for Brian to work the oracle, Copying the actual photo and then making New Frames, including all the headings and names. Thanks for your hard work Brian also Frank for Posting his photos Dave (Webmaster) |
