Wigan Album

Is that at Raleigh? It looks very familiar.

Could`nt believe you were still using the 303 rifle in
1964,we had the SLR in the late 50s.

Yes Catherine it is the parade ground at Raleigh and as for the 303's Wigie we were still in the time warp or somebody probably nicked the SLR's before we could get our hands on them.

I passed out from there in March 1986 and it was freezing. I don't think that place was ever warm.

Ken. Where is the location of H.M.S. Raleigh?. The photograph seems to show there were plenty of recruits, at that particular time.

It's in Torpoint, Devon.

November 63 when I joined and 63 was one of the worst Winters ever

Yo, Ken, I recognised you before I counted to eleven from left. Is that P.O. Trotman and the left end, as they stand.?
I also recognise the lad on the back row behind the P.O. but can't remember his name.

Great to hear from you. Hope you are well.
