Ref. the 2 RBMR (Royal Brunei Malay Regiment) Wessex they were uplifted onto HMS Albion late in 1971 and shipped to Singapore. Memory hazy, but I recall a few beers with Garth at the time , and a late night sortie to unscrew the fuselage insignia - it's not on my wall now , whether a success or not.... as stated, memory hazy.
Bless him, Garth was an entirely innocent party that time...wardroom hospitality to blame.
