Hello all, one of the first tasks
I gave myself when I took over
as Commandant was the reintroduction of a Battalion
Newsletter, well here it is and
I hope you like it.
It will be published twice a
year in the first instance, but
as it grows, which I am sure it
will, I would hope to see it
published on a quarterly basis
and in the future maybe even
monthly, it’s all down to you
and to how much content,
pictures and stories you send
us.
I know from doing the rounds
of the Battalion that there are
a lot of fantastic things
happening, but unfortunately
they are not widely publicised.
This newsletter will provide
you with a platform ‘to shout
from the rooftops’ about all
2
the
good
work
and
achievements going in in our
Battalion, so please use it.
Like all good things, this
newsletter needs a name, so
get your thinking caps on and
send your suggestions to
[email protected] & the
winning entry will get to attend
Annual Camp for free!!
Annual Camp is rapidly
approaching and final planning
is going well. I look forward to
seeing you all at camp where
we have an action packed
programme arranged ‘just for
you’.
Keep up the good work
Colonel Stewart Mackenzie
Commandant
