Don't wish to name the whole lot, because :-

a) don't know them all

b) my name is not Botty


However, would some kind soul confirm that at least that is Ian Monnery, and even John Aylmore in the picture?

O, er, and some cornish pasties (on the feet?)
General Melchett

Definitely looks like Mons Ffoggy

Nice of Drum Major to smile as usual !!!!!!!!!!!!
General Melchett

I never had much to do with Dave Dawson, however he did inspect us once whilst in about term 3 I think. We'd been in the field for a week and got out the previous evening. On parade he next day he asked the person next to me to hold out their hands. Upon closer inspection by the Drum Major and finding grime he leaned right in close and said in a very quiet spine chilling voice - "They're not very clean are they?" It was worse than any full on bollocking......

That wasn't a smile Mark, that was Dave Dawsons full-on gut busting chuckle. You should see his serious side....

There's a silhouette of Jim 'Jock' Campbell thro' the glass?

BTW.....Talking of card-schools:

Playing 'Nominations' at the front of the bus, USA 1985.
Myself, Dave Dawson, Jon Yates & Alan Upton.
Dave used to keep score, the names at the top of his bit of paper read: Dave, Jon, Al & Cpl Walker!
