SCLI Bugle Platoon - Images by Tony Rawlings

I joined the Somerset Light Infantry at Taunton in 1957, did my training, most of it was at Chedder Gorge, Joined the 1st Bn S L I at Knook Camp Warminster, and then the Bugle Platoon under B/Major Smith. then it was off to Osnabruck !958-59. I came back to the depot at Bodmin for a spell and joined the 1st Bn SCLI, as they had amalgamated in Germany. Then to Gibraltar until about three weeks before I was demobbed in 1963 March at Shrewbury L I Depot.

Welcome Sunday break, L/cpl Cook,Colin, Tony Rawlings. I think Cookie when, on to be B/Major at a later year.
