Recruiting brochure
There is no date on the brochure however, we're talking some time after the Second World War, sometime before the word "Artillery" was inserted into our name in 1960,  sometime after 1948 when the unit was re-roled as Field Artillery, sometime after 1957 when the jeep in the brochure was manufactured, Recognize any faces? Where was that Regimental Coffee Bar set up?
