Royal Tank Regiment, BATUS in 1973
written by David Whitehill
 I was driving for the SQMS Sgt Milnes .We were tail end charlie in a convoy and had to keep an eye on a bulldozer at the back, as we got left behind by the main convoy i lost my bearings and drove over a near vertical drop. so far over that we could not reverse as the trailer brake was locked on, at the bottom of the hill we saw the rest of the convoy moving along the valley floor . I had no choice but to let the landrover go on down the hill in 1st gear. Much to the horror of Sgt milnes and the rest of the convoy . The dozor driver got the shock of his life when he followed us down. |
