1st Royal Dragoons Helmet
We saw this helmet in the window of an antique militaria shop in the Lanes in Brighton today. No price on it and as the shop was just closing I couldn't ask. Note the WW2 German 88mm tank round to the left.

Some of Alan Mee's collection of photo's of the 1st Royal Dragoons BAOR 1966 - 1969
Shep carrying out maintenance
Some of you might remember that I used to have a darkroom in the basement of 'B' Sqn. Most of the equipment having been bought from John Denahay when he left the regiment. I used to process most of the photos myself. At least the black and white ones. A couple of these I think were taken by Julian Head.
