From Dolores Hewitt Edwards via messenger
This is my husband Graham (Bob) Edwards in 1958. From 1956 to 1958 he served in Cyprus with the First Battalion Wiltshire Regiment. He would like to be in touch with old comrades who came from Gloucester and environs. they were John Curtis, Les Crowther, Ron Davis (Davies), Ron Mansell, and Danny Thomas.
