J L says...
Nga mihi kia koutou katoa,e nga hoa tawhito,greetings to you all my old mates,I got out in 1985 after a T.O.D to Dieppe Barricks in Singas,with 1 battallion.After which I still had'nt got camaflouge out of my system,so I did a stint in the TF with 3Auck Nth Bn,which cured me of any homesickness I may have had for the millitary. I always look back fondly at my time in RFCS,and the army,as you do.I have moved on ,to learning about my Maori culture,something that has been more and more apparent to ones of our generation,lately. I attended the 50th reunion in Wellington,some of you may recall,Ilook forward to seeing you all at the 60th reunion in Palmerston North on Labour Weekend,good luck and all the best.Hau Pai Marire.
