JimStirling was a friend of mine in Wolfenden and Egypt He was an old soldier when I first met him in1948. Is Jim still around ?.When did he eventualy take his discharge ?.
Jock Dempster is certainly correct and I remember that the other chap was a Scouse so you are almost certainly right there too. Should I know you too? Do you know the ones on the Jimmy Stirling shot? They are all the same era - 1958/59

ReplyDeleteJim left in early 1959. I have no idea what happened to him after that because I left a few weeks later.
