Met a lovely old boy the other day, ex-Royal Sigs. When I asked which branch ie radio line etc he laughed and said, " football, Cricket and Gymnasium for my National service +1." Hilarious! Anyway, I thought I would try and find some old photos of his era 1952-54, but I am not having much luck surfing the net. Anybody know of any sites where I might find some photos of the Army team (whom he represented) for that period of time. The look on his face when he recounted some of those days was priceless and I would like to add to that if it is possible as I am not sure how much longer he has left with us. Thanks.

Gwyn,

I have emailed the Secretary of the Army Football Association to see if he can advise us further.
