The big fellow on the right is WO Derrick Mclinchey (I'm not sure what regiment he was with). Derrick is a very good friend of mine and we worked together in London after he retired from the military. I remember him showing me this picture a few years back, and it is funny that I see it posted here. Derrick said it was quite the time burning all that gonga and yes there were a few he said who liked to stand down wind. I will pass on to Derrick that his picture is posted, I'm sure he will get quite a kick out of it.

Looks like a Patricia hatbadge, Whytie.

You will notice that Moe, being a fine, upstanding Royal Canadian, is on the upwind side of the fire.
