The gentleman on the left looks very familiar.  I seem to recall him from London around 1977; ADP perhaps?  I remember driving him around with a 106 Recoilless Rife stuck between us.

Jack???


Love all the pictures!  I'll have to dig around my old albums as well.

Hey Dave. How are you doing. Do you have any pictures of Delta/Mike company back in the days when we first went over? I had a boxful but lost em in a flood. Anyhow, I am now electronically rebuilding the collection via the internet, any pictures of those days would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you to all who have already contributed to this endeavour, keep em coming!

MIke.

Hi Mike,

Life is good in the Annapolis Valley; however, I think 9er is posted next year…I’m just a camp follower theses days :-o)

As for pictures, I’m in the same boat, and it sank in my sister’s basement.  Left her boxes of photos’ and memorabilia a number of years back, and her basement flooded. Of course mine were the only boxes on the floor :-o(

I only have a few pictures from Cyprus, which are from an old book presented to us after the tour, and are proving very difficult to scan with any clarity. I also have an old picture from Sennelager; Tow platoon.  I’ll post a few when I can.

Are you heading to the reunion in Truro this summer (Sept)?

Cheers,

Dave

Truro is a long way away from Niagara, Dave and I had a second back operation in Germany (not good) before leaving the Queen's service so.... if it is possible, I will be there!!!!!

I wanted to go last year but my mom was ill...

Do you ever see Stan the Man Grady in your travels? I see his picture on your website (Well done, BTW), he looks good. Anyhow, should it come to pass that I do fly or drive out, I shall let you know right away. Perhaps you can arrange accomodations close to the legion as I'll have to rack out a couple of times a day or else... Smiley

MIke

PS Should I recieve any pictures from the lads of D/M Company, I'll forward them to you via e-mail. I've been fairly fortunate so far, many have read my posting on the misfortune (almost identical to yours) and have kindly responded with scanned pictures. Jim is also been of great service as well!
