Default Hello

Hi everyone

It's great to have found the forum and to now be a member.

I'm relatively new to collecting and have developed a few main interests - principally pre-amalgamation Scottish regiments, Royal Armoured Corps of all eras and Guards/ Household Div. Slowly building a nice collection and only beginning (6 months, give or take). I hope to share some of my collection with you all soon.

A long family history of army/ military service. My late grandfather was Royal Artillery, one great uncle RM, another was Hussars as was my great grandfather. So, deciding not to follow family tradition, I became a Sapper.

Anyway, thank you for taking the time to read my introduction. I look forward to getting to know many of you and sharing this fantastic hobby.

Christopher

Hi Bill and Billy

Thank you both for the warm welcome. I really appreciate it.

And, yes, naturally I have an obsessive fascination with all things RE - once a sapper, always a sapper!

Best, Chris
