He was a Canadian Reserve/Militia officer in the 1st Battalion, Nova Scotia Highlanders (North) and was attached to 4th Battalion (TA) Royal Green Jackets in the summer of 1974. He had alot of good times with them. He still has his DPM kit and 58 pattern webbing the officers gave him back in 1980 when he visited the officer mess. irishhighlanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11560543695636931736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4690131777600341387.post-62127423356194009722011-01-09T06:47:28.814+00:002011-01-09T06:47:28.814+00:00I have that book myself.Those ACTA modern brits lo...I have that book myself.Those ACTA modern brits look exactly like a set of Britians toy soldiers in 1/32 I had when I was a kid.<br />I had actually thought ACTA had gone out of business.Its a shame they Airfix didn't scale them down either.<br /><br />Cheers Rich.west1871https://www.blogger.com/profile/14253166360184930588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4690131777600341387.post-74241748263828904262011-01-08T01:41:19.719+00:002011-01-08T01:41:19.719+00:00Cheers Monty!
