At this time of the year I remember with great fondness the pantomine & variety shows staged by the battalion each year,the music was performed by the band under the baton of the bandmaster WO1 E G Spooner,the cast of the show was performed by officers,other ranks and wives of those who lived in married quarters,scenery was erected by the unit pioneer sgts,Sgt Hockram and Sgt Ted Widdowson one notable performer was Bernard Manning,the well known commedian who was at that time undergoing his National Service.Heartbreakers it certainly was.
