Were you in 'A' Coy in the Radfan? I seem to think you might be the same person i served alongside in 1 platoon. If you are the same one then you will remember the accidental discharge of a Bren Gun in a sangar which caused you a shoulder injury! Not too serious but enough for a cas-evac and away from sangars for a while. Was it Rex Dourish in the sangar with you? Anyway, many of the men who were there in 'A' Coy with you might not be around anymore although i believe Rex is. Those who were and still alive might care to drop you a line. Hope you are well John and that some of your drinking buddies at least get in touch with you. All the best to you. Keith Borthwick, ex. 1 section, 1 platoon. | |

Hello Dusty. Trying to picture you but the clue would be Mickey Breed! He was a close buddy of yours as i re-call so i am guessing your other nickname was 'Manti'. Correct? Glad to know you are alive and well and living in a nice area. It would be 1969 since i last saw you. Time flieson and age humbles us all so enjoy you life in the Highlands. All the best. Keith. | |
