Faces are more clear. That would be Ells, Watts, Reese and the back who is facing us, I am just guessing. Would it be Daley? Ells and Dalley always hung out together.

Hi Jim. The other Royal facing us sure looks like Mcpl Reese. I'm sure you must remember Reese. I do not remember his first name.

Jim I remember that picture well we are still smiling so I guess Ells and I did not get into any crap yet. I felt sorry for our Mcpl Neil Reace he put up with a lot of crap from us but I guess that is what made training fun.

Thanks for the memories Jim

I remember Randy Watts well. Stories about how he "grossed out the Civies" were legendary among the Band.

Hi Randy

You were a hell of a guy always smiling and laughing and always in crap, I mean always. You remind me of a guy I knew when I served in Germany. You were a good soldier who turned out just fine.......Pro Patria!
