    Strange that there are no Troopers in the gazette, perhaps Grumps forgot to send me those?
    Sammy Simpson was a Cpl in 'B' Sqn at the time.
    You should now be able to put names to faces Derek.

    Thought so, he lived in the same street, Buchanan street,he was a Captain and retired to Dumfries on small farm/ holding so could be still there
