The Gay Minuet! 1953.

The Gay Minuet! 1953.
Snowy and I dancing to the gramaphone. Note the skull (illeg).

Someone came to light with a gramophone of the wind-up vintage, also afew records. None that I can recall had a radio in the line, so music wasrather scarce. Here we have Snowy Woodhams wearing yet another cheeky 3RARchapeau, a handkerchief knotted around his head, and is dancing with me.My haircut gave me a pointy head shape, barbers were your mates who owneda pair of scissors.

We are on the rear slope of the hill, out of sight ofCharlie. Thus the exposed bunker entrance, which you wouldn't dare have onthe forward slope. This was taken following the Operation Buffalo raid andSnowy was one of our reinforcements, of which we needed plenty. Thepatrolling from here was quite arduous, the valley being so big we had toprotect it with a large number of night patrols.
