Key Appointments
Picture
​
​21 January 1954 - Gunner William (Bill) T. Wickett promoted Bombardier.
Warrant Officers and Sergeants Mess
Annual Mess Dinner
​I do not have any names at all, but everyone seems to be having a great time! There's beer, top hats, musical instruments, singing  and at least 6 Sergeants Major! Both of the photos are marked Mar of 1954; is it the same dinner? #7 from the left at the head table appears to be in the second photo. Sergeant Major looking at the camera appears to be seated on the floor, second from the left. Did they gather in the Officers Mess first and then sit for dinner in the Warrant Officers and Sergeants' Mess? Or is the photo on the right after dinner?
