Hope there's 7 creases in those bell bottoms Benny? I melted one of those silks when I was a sea cadet, iron too hot."We're surrounded on all sides... Good... you're obviously in the right place".Comment

Re: P Coy Pic
Was that the start of P coy or the end? We gave parachute training to a bunch of sailors about that time, they were part of a submarine rescue crew. Idea was to fly and drop over the sunk sub with a couple of rigid raiders with basic kit to locate the sub and make contact with any survivors before the rescue vessels arrived, not sure if the team formed as a consequence of the Russian sub that sank, or the team was formed before the Russian sub sank. dDm and distant past!Originally posted by BennyB View PostComment

Re: P Coy Pic
Bahrain 3 Para mugshot.jpgSPAG didn't do P coy. The only RN required to do P coy were those in Combined Ops units and they only numbered around a dozen at any one time. As far as I know, only 4 of us wore the maroon [Bahrain, Hamala Camp 1962 to 64.] although we've always had teams supporting the Paras on exercises and ops ... Radfan, Falklands etc.,Originally posted by Don the Mod View PostLast edited by BennyB; 1 May 2019, 23:36.Comment

- Having taken into account the current COVID restrictions that currently apply in the different parts of the UK, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2021 reunion. The Chairman Nick Butler will be heading up the Fan at 0930 hrs on Saturday the 15th May and he will lay a BAFC wreath on behalf of the Club at the summit. He will also toast The Fallen. If other members wish to make their own pilgrimage up the Fan at their own risk please follow the relevant COVID restrictions that will be in place. As a Club we are not able to accept liability for members safety and well being over the weekend of 14/15 May. Our Clubs insurance that normally covers Fandance will not operate this year. Update to follow reference Aldershot 10 Miler on the 20th November 2021.
