THE 9TH/12TH HOVAL LANCFRS nEGiMENtAL JOLlRNAl
The Technical 0M and his team brave the elements.
Once again the time has come for us
to record our activities over the past
twelve months, and so turning back
the pages of our diary, we hope to
glve you the comings, goings and
doings of the Technical Department
We opened the previous notes by
bidding farewell to Captain lnow
Majorl Warlow.
In this issue we inusl open with yet
another farewell, thls time to Captain
Jim Mitchell, who left us to join the
Staff at Castlemartin Ranges. in his
place we welcome back to the
department, after his tour as
Regimental Sergeant Major, Captain
Keith Jones, Somehow, either by
good fortune, or good management.
we have survived a hectic period since
our last report, and our four ‘old
taithfuls’, the store binners, have been
seen in some unexpected places at
unexpected times. More than once we
have been accused of issuing spares
like men With no arms.
it has been good to have had all the
stat? together in one place during the
past year and we are fortunate that
departures from ’Nuts and Bolts’ have
been few, SSgt Beardrnore has gone
to ERE to the Ayreshire Yeomanry
Squadron, and our clerlt, Tpr
Wilkinson to ciVilian life.
As a department we have had a
busy and successful training season.
We have tried to gaze into our crystal
ball and foresee the likely requirements
and, by and large, have been
reasonably accurate However,
somebody always manages to break
something we had not catered for,
then all our ingenuity and prowess as
scroungers is required.
