Jim,
Do they make sure they all buy the same boots from a listed supplier, or do they buy them from the QM direct? Appears its a sign of the times!!

Back to the head of hair on the 63A Armourrers photo........ Quite a change from the same, now grey haired REME Captain, feeding the belts into the Vickers MMG in the Jeremy Clarkson The Gun' you tube vid!

Ah, yes Cinders........ You have put up a photo of my colleagues in A Company. A couple of those, Mepham, Purdom and Landeth were Armourers but I was in C Company and not on that photo!
