Default 61st Medium Regiment R.A. (Denbighshire Yeomanry )

I bought a copy of "Howitzer Herald", the weekly magazine of 61st Medium Regiment R.A.- The Denbighshire Yeomanry on E bay. It is Issue No.35 and dated 28th February 1946.

I think it was the last issue before the unit was "put into a state of suspended animation " and therefore as well as mention of a proposed Reunion, the issue is something of a retrospective.

I hope there might be a few interesting snippets in the following pages.

P.B.

Robert and I would love to have seen that when we were researching the Regiment for the article in Militaria magazine a couple of years ago!
