Hi all, I was in 8 pl C coy at that time, Jim McFarlane (Mac). Spud Murphy ( Jack ) was section commander, Nick Ravenhill was platoon comd and Maj De-Lakaks Lesener (I think thats how you spell it) was Coy Comd.
From what I remember their was also Lt Price Edwards and an RAOC officer called Oldham I think? Their are quite a few I can remember but not sure whether they were in 7 or 9 (Drums) pl maybe someone can help me out?

Hi Chow, I remember Mo Ullah very well and see him most years at the Comrades in Wrexham still looks the same ( with the exception of an earing) and still as mad as ever!!! As for Misfit I have no idea, wasn't he from Stroud and used to eat worms in the Zur post pub Lemgo?

Regards, Jim.
