This weekend it seems like a bunch of my old Army mates were posting pictures from 'Way Back When' and it's brought back a ton of good memories!

Here's a picture of me in 2003 with my Rover.

You have yet to see Zac's vid of one of the L R's being transported away from our camp site, but seriously, good to reminisce with bygone days, Rick

I too like to meet up with old Pals once in a while there is something comforting about reminiscing, I call it "The Waltons" syndrome.

Looking back with Rose coloured spectacles as my late father used to say, that is probably the pink hue in the photo.lol

I was there for about 8 and a half months... Think we had DPM's for the first 3 months!
