This year the room rate is hoped to be the same as for the last years at 25 pounds per person per night. The format this year will change slightly as food and entertainment will be provided by me as part of my 65th Birthday celebrations. I have hired the large banqueting suite where both hot and cold food will be served. The room has its own bar and dance floor and live entertainment is to be laid on. My extended family will be joining in the celebrations and the expectation is between 150/200 including Denbury boys wives and partners. "Presents are strictly prohibited" although a card with a donation to the DENBURY Boys Welfare Fund would be greatly accepted. I will give more details including the Golf Day nearer the time.

A Boy Soldier for the Queen - General Tells the real story of one boy's experience of growing up in the 1950's in the United Kingdom and overseas as a 'service brat' and then fulfilling an ambition, joining the boy service of the British Army straight from school at the age of fifteen. In 1958 he signed-up for the Junior Leaders' Regiment, Royal Corps of Signals and served at Denbury Camp near Newton Abbott, Devon, at a time when discipline in the British Army was still pretty tough. In the Junior Leader's he would start his training to operate the British Army's long-range high-speed radio and teleprinter equipment. His very personal recollections also reveal the wonderful comradeship and humour that is so unique to service life, and how his early technical and leadership training in the boy service equipped him for the rigours and challenges to come in both military and civilian life.
