Royal Dragoon Guards Oral History Project

This interview is part of a collection carried out by the Royal Dragoon Guards Oral History Project.

Interviews include experiences in WW1, WW2, the Cold War, Palestine, Korea, Aden, Cyprus, Libya, Northern Ireland, Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan as well as stories of family life in the Army. This project was funded by a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund.
