I was posted to 39 to 1 troop "The Rock was my troop s/sgt at the time.schemes were part and parcel of being in BAOR, but as time went on we were out less and less and being in camp was not good as it gave us too much time for mischief.

I was also with the Rock in 1 troop...

I was also in 1 Troop under S/sgt Rock and later Dummy Deighton, wonderful memories of booze and fights, the guard room, the Restrictions and the DRO's that followed..... made many friends..... Happy Days!!!
