Chris Robinson, 2nd intake Apps Coll 73-74, 47 field reg RA, REME Old Dalby, 2nd Bn Scott Guards, ASC, out 82.

Moved over to Perth Australia in 1990, lived their for twenty years, just moved again to Thailand living about 10 km out of Pattaya in Nongprue locals call it the ''Darkside'' and Working in PNG.

Just a note on the 2nd intake it says in the picture gallery it was the first intake to be all 16 years olds, ''not true'' as I didn't turn 16 time June 73 six month in to my 2 years.

Hi there.

I'm wondering if any of you listed here would remember my Dad. Bryan Nokes i think he joined up in 1955, and has been to N.Ireland, with 1DERR Sennelager with 39 Missle Regiment, British forces Emblem in Belgium and again with the 1DERR in Berlin. Various other places include Shoesburyness at Horseshoe Brks. After leaving the ACC we moved to Australia where he joined the Australian Army. Just in case any of you do remember him . He's going well.

B company 1970 ---72  worked in Cove, CVHQ Minley Mannor, Sennelarger and Hannover. Also short spells in Gibralter, Malta and Cyprus.

I work and live in Libya just about to go back after all the trouble out there.
My wife is Moroccan so we have a house in Morocco and we are also building a villa out there.
We also spend time in Newcastle as that's where I'm originally from.
Also Brighton as that's where my parents live now.

Yeah that was a experience working in Cove,  huge feeding numbers at the weekend when your Kitchen was duty kitchen. Good times and even better experience, still using what I learned these days, and yeah I did learn something from Scotty, not much mind you at that time I knew everything anyway.  ::) ::)

I think I may have worked with Bryan Nokes when I was at 39 Missile, ask him if he remembers Pete Crowhurst and Wally Hammond they were there when I was.

From what I have heard it is a great place to live. I was further along the drag in Egypt for National Service. Fabled weather around that area. No wonder so many ex service personnel chose to hang on after the war.
I am picking the area will rocket ahead as a main tourist destination when the turmoil settles back to normalsy.
