The Sqn was famous for bridging and was a record holder in the MGB race.
We even worked 'Close Support' with our armd colleagues.
Did'nt stay with us in the GULF as Close Support

This was taken at LANGERDAMM training area just outside of Nienburg in 1991. Sp Tp lads have red armbands. Sgt Kev Kehoe is smiling in this photo because WO1 Tony Liddicoat, who provides the paintball equipment hasn't passed him the bill for guns and bullets yet.

Photo courtesy of Jasper Harrett (ex 1Tp) who is central in the photo. He's the Sect Comd of this 'Ranger' carrying AFV432. The photo was taken during A MED MAN EX , these are held on the BATUS training area in Canada . It is one of the rare opportunities for troops to train in as near as realistic scenario for battle.

Here's more pic's from Jasper Harrett, I've put them in an album as they are all large and I could only do it that way. He must have paid 30p extra on each of them as it took over an hour to download on my gas powered computor. I'llget Jasper to give a bit of history to them.
