I remember him pulling his trousers up like that in Bruckstrasse in Brunswick in '69 Thanks for that, funny enough Al's son Alex served with me in the 2nd! He told me that Al was only about 17 in those pics, 5 years later he transferred to the REME and came out in 93. |

My mistake, the pictures do not feature AL McKechnie but COLIN McKechnie. The old grey matter is slowly fading to white.
Apologies to Colin, Al and anyone I might have misled.

Rip Kerby lives on a barge that spends it time when not traveling the waterways tied up on the Sharpness canal,Gloucestershire. I have a telephone number if required.
