Hello,
I'm Paul Moody's daugher, I was just a tiny girl when my dad was pensioned out in 1981. I was nine..lol.
I've found some photo's recently, I am wonder if anyone could put a date or names to some of them...
http://www.facebook.com/profile.p...m.php?aid=22510&id=1313397796
I obviously know a few of them are on Brittania or associated with her, On the back of one of them, the one on the veranda deck of Brittania, it says practicing for Beat Retreat, Barbados... doesn't anyone know what year that would have been.
I am really keen on setting up a website about my dad, and his days in the Marine band. if anyone out there has any stories amusing or otherwise please let me know... I would be so interested in hearing them.

Hi kelly,
I am sure someone here will be able to help you out. I have tried the link in your post but it seems to require facebook registration to see the pics and some of the silvers surfers here might not want that, any chance of uploading the pictures here or a site with easier access?
kind regards
Brian |

Dave White, far right rear rank.
Second front rank, face is familiar?
Chris Davis PDM (retired) Jay O'Neill, Paddy McDermott, Brick Wall & 'Pusser.' (DOM is Peter Heming)
Well before my time!

Very warm welcome to the Forum yaketty-daughter. I remember your dad but only met him very briefly when I was a very young musician and he wasn't...  _________________ 'Never moon a werewolf'. |

Thanks RAB, I'm happy to be here and hopefully looking forward to any stories people have of my dad. I remember visiting Eastney Barracks with many times during my early childhood and Dadealus (not sure if that is spelt correctly). I think the HMRM is as much part of me as it was my dear dad. _________________ Once a Marine's Daughter always a Marines Daughter |

I think from an historic point, this photo was taken at CTCRM and it shows a syndicate/class, of the very 1st Band Service JCC. Note the brand new Jersey's that they are wearing. It was probably taken around early 1972. I was a young Bugler fresh out of training in Eastney and I can recall a youngish Charlie Flemming, borrowing one of my Jumpers for the JCC. (Lovats were the Dress of the day at Eastney and the green jumpers were a new thing and some of the older members of the band, had not got round to getting the new ones). _________________ Once a Bugler, always a Turtle !! |
