Post Re: Great Memories

Definitely makes me want to dig out my old photo albums and think back to when I had more hair and less waist!

Post Re: Great Memories

Guys: It is good to look back at those times during our service. I wrote two books about my experiences and writing them really was a part of the therapy I need to move on with my life. I guess I am lucky to have been given the opportunity to capture my story like this. These pictures relate to places I served in my books. So if anybody had read them and has any questions, please feel free to email me at ste_preece@hotmail.com.

My books are viewable via:

Here's another couple of phots from my archives. We used to do the river crossing drills every year during arctic warfare training exercises. The water was as ever ferking freezing:

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
John Stuart Mill
(1806 - 1873)
