Gentlemen,
can't work out how to create an 8pl album so I thought it might be fun if everyone posted a then and now pair of pics. Thing is when you get on a bit the old memory starts to go and it helps to put a name to a face (and vice-versa). I will leave it to you to decide which is then and which is now.
I was'nt 8 Plt but drums 9 Plt the fight that was mentioned earlier was benny and tom31 it happened after a company smoker in the gym above us
A bad day on the golf course is better than a good day at work

Margrets bar (Husband named Heinze) lovely couple! Also possibly known as "Dak bar"?
Correct me if I'm wrong Griff and this is just a guess, but I think the now pic
is the one on the right?
The reason I believe this is because I couldn't see Gerry Crocker allowing the hair!........lol
Great stuff mate and great Idea!!
Regards, Jim.:winker:
well spotted Jim.
Ah yes. Our dear old CSM. I remember getting put on one of those christian information weekends which of course was intolerable to a self respecting heathen like me. I promptly went down to the orderly room and changed my religion to agnostic. (they didn't have Odinist on the list). I seem to remember Ianto 10 not being best pleased as it was thought that I had outflanked the powers that be. Me!!!!!!!!??????? I think these days I would love to go on the course so I could bait the vicar mercilessly. In the Lancers, we had a service on the square for our tercentenary and we were expected to sing a hymn. I refused and the RSM threw a fit and jailed me in front of the regiment. (substansive full corporal at the time as well).
Anyway mate, how are you these days? You doing alright for yourself??
WHERE ARE EVERYONE'S THEN AND NOW PICS. TOO EMBARRASSED??? It doesn't matter if you haven't aged quite as well as I have.
Griff are you and Richards 47 having a compitition to see who as got the longest hair when you tell me how to go about it i will put a now and then picture on the site i have not changed a bit
cledwyn
another bar i can remember is the germania stubchen i think it was down the bottom of mittel strasse
Cledwyn,
if you look under the box where you type in a reply there is a 'Manage Attachemnts' button.
From there you just browse your computer for the pic you want and hit 'upload'. Should work.
I take it tony 47 has long hair then. Seem to remember him getting Bobby Charlton syndrome even way back in the seventies. He must look like Bill Bailey.
Come on Tony, lets see the flowing locks!!!!
To all 8 Platoon members(Tidworth/ Lemgo)

Nearly died still remember it to this day good old days and not a care in the worl l apart from the counts long runs in full NBC KITAh The Rattle I remember it well. Jerry Crocker waking us up in the mornings when everyone had a hangover . "Cum On" he would say in a long drawn out way, Then from the back of one of the rooms you could her " F### O###. The reply was sweet " I dont think so Hind, I dont think so". Not bad guessing out of a whole Company.
