Hi, Scoobie the name sounds familiar
Sorry I've been away with work so not on line since Wednesday. Did you work with Hutch (Martin Hutchby) he did some photography with 27? I was only with 27regt from 86 to 89 after which I went to Ireland before finishing off as an instructor with NITAT down at Lydd. We had a few ex-27 come through on the package with other units when I was at Lydd and a load of ex 23bty who came down as civ-pop. Happy days.

Hi Wagtail,
I took over from Hutch ,when I returned from BATUS , besides doing the Photographer job I was the 27 Regt AFV recognition instructor as well as a DMI ,many strings to my bow.
I left 27 in Dortmund to spend my last 4 years in the Hebrides at RARH . I sometimes bump into Hutch now and again ( not if I can help it lol)
Now a days I look after two " Old Ladies " after their military service they need alot of TLC ( Abbot SPG & Stalwart HMLC Mk1) so I can't get away from them even when I've left the military.
Best wishes Scoobie
