Title: A Company, R and S Squads. Intake of January 1961
Post by: Billmiller on December 14, 2011, 12:42:44 AM

Its almost 50 years since I arrived at St. Omer barracks as a 15 year old recruit. That was in January 1961. I was there for 3 happy years and would like to know how the rest of R and S squads have fared since then.  I unfortunately was invalided out of the Army having contracted TB.  But things have went well for me and I have just retired after working in a school for 27 years.  So R and S squads where are you now?  The only one that I have managed to contact was Dave Thopmson and that was in 2008:)

Also in touch with a Dave Thompson on facebook. He was at Inglis Barracks (RE Postal), Mill Hill 1970-72, I assume it's the same one. I was in O&P squad (1968).
