Iwould like to start this editorial by
saying a massive thank you to all those who have given me a very warm welcome to the Corps,
especially, to name a few, Lt Col (Retd) Chris Ham, for stepping up and covering the role of Regt Sec during the period of Abby DuBaree leaving and me starting last year. Col Mark Morrison, the two RSM’s, WO1 Matthew Eade, WO1 Craig Woodall and Maj Sean
It would be lovely to have the Reservists, Association and Veteran members contribute their wonderful stories, to add to, 1MWD & DATR articles we already receive and enjoy.
For the next edition, you could send how you celebrated the upcoming Kings Coronation 6th May 2023. Something a MWD, MWH or a pet did, a snippet of “A Day in your Life”, either when you served or in retirement. Have you supported other Charities, Volunteered, and aided in the Community, helped with any fundraising on behalf of
Jones who all helped me with The Corps and Association, when I broke my ankle. No doubt, you
will all agree, all very well deserved.
“It would be lovely to have the Reservists, Association and Veteran members contribute their wonderful stories”
the Corps, How and when you did them, these would be great pieces we would love to read. The world is your oyster, let your mind run wild.
Thank you to all those who have contributed to this edition of Chiron Calling, as Chris iterated in the last edition, “this is your magazine,” without your contributions and pictures the magazine would not be what it is today.
Please note the closing date for your articles in the Autumn/Winter publication, is
the 11th of September 2023. You can email to regtsecravc@hotmail.co.uk, or post your stories. Regt Sec, Rm 213, Robertson House, Slim Road, Camberley, Surrey, GU15 4NP.
