My Dad was very proud of of being a Gunner. He joined the Regiment in 1942, aged 16. Serving the entire war with 2816 Squadron, and later in 1946 with another squadron in Palestine until he was demobbed in 1947. For 40 years the boys of 2816 would get together at a Glasshouse Street pub, in London, for a reunion every 2 years. He never missed one, always going to faithfully support his squadron and his mates. He passed away in 1993. Per Ardua.
