This is a personal web site and has no official status. The contents and design of this site is by me and no other. I WISH TO THANK ALL THOSE WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO MY SITE.. I served with the Royal Artillery from 1963 to 1987 of which a considerable amount of that time was spent as a Tiger, during the 1970s in Germany. In effect this site is for all "Old Tigers".
