THIS year we are mounting a sustained effort to locate previously serving members for the 1st Battalion Border Regiment for the annual reunion on May 1, as age is obviously reducing numbers each year.
Many were recruited from the mid Cheshire area.
An informal dinner dance will be held at the Shepherd's Inn, Carlisle. The evening starts at 7.30pm for 8pm and dinner will be followed by a Big Band and entertainment. Tickets cost £15 and can be obtained from John Mallinson on 01228 520877.
