This was left on my guestbook about a Jack Talbot. There was no age or dates of service - maybe someone knows or remembers him

"I received word from Adrian Talbot, son of Jack Talbot who was a member of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders Regiment, that Jack passed away at his home in Motherwell on 2 May.
from
David Burns, Fairfax, Virginia.(Former member of 1st Cameronians and 1st Queen's Own Highlanders), 1962-1971."

A wee bit more info
"can you give me more information on Jack; dates with the Argyll’s, was he in Signals, date he left and rank. I did post a notice on the guest book but will be more than glad to add anything that will help his old comrades identify him. If you met Jack you would remember him. I had the pleasure of serving with him in the Cameronians. He and I were in Signals and were on the Queen’s guard at Ballater." Davy Burns

There is a memorial service for the late James Johnson killed in Afghanistan recently at Paisley Abbey this Sunday the 27th of July at 1pm the Paisley Branch are meeting up at the British Legion Renfrew Rd Paisley at 12.30pm should any Argyll,s out there read this and wish to attend.

Sid.

 Jimmy,your wean will be alright with Tommy Trout,but he will come home to
 you a wreck after meeting the Doc,but there again the Doc can have changed
 but I doubt it,Jimmy your wean should look up Jamie Fulton while he is
 over in Greenock, apparently Jamie is a member of the Inverclyde Branch,
 what a character the Jamie boy,hope you are doing well Jimmy and still
 swallowing the IRN BRU.
