My dad served in the Gordon Highlanders regiment in the Second World War under Montgomery and was in one of the fiercest battles in El Alamein and thank God he survived. He has now passed but we will always be so very proud of him.

Hi Ronnie Well leave that with me as I need to sort all his old photos out first and see if I can send them over. Myself and my sister are intending to contribute them to the Gordon Highlanders museum at some point.

I think the Drum Major leading the band on the photo at 6:56 is my dad’s old Drum Instructor Grenville Hall

am having a wee squint again at this, still very good. each time of viewing I recognise someone else. Hope you have more to put up. Would say you are from the 60's, probably obvious, but you have pics through to the 80's.
