Good morning / afternoon all, Very pleased to join and looking forward to learning and, where I can, contributing. Some of you may already know me as I am a member of some other online forums (under the same user name and avatar) - I recognise some of the names on here! My main interest is cap badges / militaria but I also have a broader interest in military history. My key focus is the Essex Yeomanry as I served with them as a Signal Squadron. More generally an interest to other Essex units, and the RWF as I started my adult service with them. I also act as the hon historian for the Essex Yeomanry Association. I have a range of books and material on the EY and happy to try and help with any queries in that sphere. Michael
Welcome aboard, Michael. If your interest stretches to 1/4th Bn, The Essex Regiment, we should speak some time--that being one of the few subjects on which I can claim any special expertise. Regardless, I look forwarded to reading your posts.
Thanks for the warm welcome and I look forward to getting to know you all. Charley, my knowledge of the 1/4th Essex is pretty much what is covered in Burrows - I shall look forward to learning from you!
