Regarding Rob Elliot, we joined the same day, may 9th 1961, and spent our first three months in the same barrack room. I remember him well. Where are you living now? If not too far away I will gladly visit.

I have given up trying to message on the new google site and the u/m is about wrist watches being promoted to celebrate the Corps 100th anniversary in September. I mentioned it before to John Barnes who expressed some interest and hopefully he will see this. Visit the Corps website at https://royalsignals.org and click on Royal Signals 100. Then scroll down to Centenary Watches. Click on where it says click here and the whole lot are shown. At this stage potential buyers just register their interest and the maker will contact you eventually. The watches chime in morse and at around £500 they must be the business I would think.

Until a few months ago I was in contact with Dave Hopkins ex Jerboa 61-63? Dave lives In Mexico, he was the Drum Major at one stage. Also Keith Greenhalgh who lives in USA. I have emailed both and had not had any replies. Keith has also been phoned and it comes up that his numbers have been disconnected. I just wondered if anyone else has had any contact details for either Dave or Keith. Keith is listed on the Denbury Boys Facebook site but Dave is not. Dave Clapson Sydney.

Hi Jock thank you for your response. I will be visiting Bob tomorrow, so will see how he responds to your name. I have to ask, what's the red suit all about, i am intrigued.
Will pass on your best wished. I don't know much of his army life, but i do know he talk fondly of his days at Denbury camp.Thank you again for getting back to me. Best wishes Kathy.

Greetings
Having a load of troubles trying to get onto google site. Read message Jon Salter has passed away. Iam in and out of hospital again, so on meds still.
Did he go to Horsham pub and have a drink with?...minds gone.
Can you put funeral details on here.
Sorry if this doesn’t make sense.

Re: message 3412 about Keith Greenhalgh & Dave Hopkins, both Jerboa. Dave Hopkins is alright and I am in regular contact. Keith has moved home and his emails seem to be discontinued.

Hi Bob, thank you for your response. Have i got his troop wrong? i was doing it from memory, I really don't know where I got White spear from. We live in Cornwall, a bit of a bus ride for you i'm afraid. Now i'm going to star throwing questions at you.
What can you tell me of your time together at Denbury? Can you give me any other names of the guys you were both with?
Was he REALLY in the band?
Do you have any photos.....that you would want to share?
Can i email you or you email me. Think thats enough to keep you going, haha. Thanks again. Wish i thought of this before he became ill.
Best Wishes Kathy.

Hi Keith
John was at the pub for Fred Songhurt's farewell. Maybe see you and Rose at the funeral, not sure yet. The details are on the last post site.

It may be the last time we can call it this BUT, a very happy Australia Day to all the Denbury Boys, have a great day all....

Re Rob Elliot.
I aslo joined in May 61 along with Bob Waight but I was in a different Sqn. But I had a niggle in the back of my mind I knew Rob. Both Bob Waight and I were in the band,Bob a drummer and myself a trumpeter. I looked at the White Spear troop photo and could not see Rob listed. But I had a image of him in my mind, and found photos of him twice, but no name,if its the right bloke.

In the band on the left as a drummer. http://www.denburyjuniorleaders.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/82d_Band_1963.pdf . Page 6 on the left. In both photos he is next to Tony Mullins.
Hope this is the right person.
Regards to Rob
