Hi John, Joined argylls 1970 to A Coy Berlin then Royal Guard and Fort George. Transfered to 1 RHF B Coy Girdwood Park. There was 2 sets of twins and we were all about to go into town together when myself and the other McGaughey twin were switched to patrols.
I knew Capt Watson and Jimmy Struthers at Crossmaglen with 6 Plt B Coy Argylls- Part of my duties was looking after the 2 messes, so served them their last meal.
I transferred to the Royal Engineers in 77 and served til 86 as a Sgt. Now living in Copenhagen.
Yours Aye
Rob or Dangerous Danny Lynch

Gidday,
Dont know if this is the right place to do this, but my grandad Robert Brown was a member of the Argyle & Sutherland Highlanders during world war 2, he served in greece and africa. Im trying to find any information on him and learn a bit more about the Highlanders, if anyone has any suggestions it would be much appreciated. You can email me on katiebrowne@xtra.co.nz.
Thanks for your time
Katie
