THF 9TH/12TH ROYAL LANCERS REGIMENTAL JOURNAL a. Our ‘Tiffy SSgt Norman went mis» sing for 2 days and became the “Regimental Hero“. b. The Krumback Fire Brigade turned out to wash down our vehicles one weekend. c. We became “Baron von Brock- wursl's” private bodyguard for the Regimental Exercise. d. Cpl Wheeldon played the dustbin whilst giving an unusual rendition of ”The Music Man" on the ENDEX SMOKER"I With our arrival back at Wolfen» buttel at the time of writing, we are confronted with the prospect of the Spring Probex. Somehow the vehicles will be gleaming and the crews immaculate, but we have a great deal of hard work to do in the next 6 days! No rest for the wicked! The Year In Retroapecl B Squadron has already completed one full training season in its new medium reconnaissance role and is now well into its second. All members can be justifiably proud of their achievements. Militarily we can claim to have swept the board in 1984 as individual and overall winners in the Regimental Troop Tests, producing the winner of the NCO Cadre Course and achieving the highest overall marks on the pre-Gunnery Camp competitions in addition to the fire Open Range Firing Report. To round it off we have the best PRE Inspection results throughout the year and are awaiting the award of the coveted Rolls Royce Shield. This is a record that will sorely test any other squadron to match, having set the standard, our problem is now to maintain it throughout 1985. On the sporting side we have produced consistently high performanes in the various Inter Squadron com- petitions even if the final results have sometimes been frustrating The sports round up as follows: Rugby Final, Runners Up Athletics Final, Runners Up Cricket Final, Runners Up Football Final, Winners Volleyball Final. Runners Up Basketball Final, Winners Only in the lnter~Squadr0n Hockey Competition did we fail to reach the final. Our aim in 1985 must be to main- tain and, if possible, better this record. It has also been a year of consider- able manning turbulence. We have said farewell to and greeted a large number of officers, NCOs and soldiers. The list below will serve to show the training problems currently confronting us. WOFAC AUTO- CENTER GMBH NEUER WEG 26 WOLFENBUTTEL, TELEFON 7977 30 |
