ROYALS IN CYPRUS 1984-85

Looking for any Royals who were in Cyprus 2004-2005. Was with C-Company at the time and would like to make contact with any old comrades. Also wondering if anyone from who was in Cyprus during this time would be interested in a reunion of some sort. I have always wondered about this type of thing but I wasn't sure if there was any interest or how to go about setting one up.

Hey boy's, thanks for the messages and the interest of a reunion. If anyone knows any ex-royals who attended Cyprus in the time frame let me know.
Hey BJ, I remember you well and I rember Lt. Lawton, tall skinny fellow who carried a small teddy bear in his top pocket. He was the type of Lt. jokes were made of.
