I`ve been asked to post this on behalf of Barney Hughes 937 Squad
Any squaddies of Barney who would like to get in touch, or anyone who knows him, please reply on here. Private msg gets his contact details.
Thanks

I think this must be an earlier 937 Squad - Mine joined up at Deal on 1st of March 1971 and the DL was Sgt Pittock - I don't remember anyone called Hughes unles he joined us from Chosin Troop

I think you will find that 937 troop was the last of the old troop numbers I was in 7 troop which joined Deal June 29 1971, and on joining CTCRM 6 weeks later 937 were still at CTCRM then.

Thank you Pat, and thanks to all who pm`ed me. The following is typical,

937 Squad was a National Service Squad joined ITC Lympstone 1959, was one of the last NS Squads to pass out - members went to either 40 in Malta or 45 in Aden.
We were all Ex RMFVR only 15 in the Squad - Have now found 9 of them

Thanks again for your help, lads. I will pass-on the details I have
Aye,
