Smile Bass Visits

I vividly recall one particular visit to the Brewery when a certain Loadies, one T**** F******, and myself decided to "borrow" a Bass Charrington flag from the roof of the building. A day or so later we were advised by the CO that it would be a good idea to return said flag to preserve the good relationship between 48 and the brewery and preserve the beer supply!! We did of course but I still have the two pint beer pots given to us on the visit, in fact I used them just a couple of days ago.

I was 48 from December 69 until May 73 when I left the service, flew with both you gentlemen.
