Very good!

The Cameronians were back in Aden in 1966. I remember they had a wonderful Pipes & Drums. The Cameronians handed over to the Royal Northumberland Fusiliers and they in turn handed over to the Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders. There are those of us who still remember when Active Service meant tough soldiering and comradeship in foreign, distant lands.

I was in Aden for 2 years after leaving Korea, I was a Cpl in the M.T. and drove many convoys to Dahala. The photos bring back many memories.
