Just as well we had TTN and friends buzzing around at the time.
Happy to oblige Shack! Luckily our chaps had SLRs, and the ammo didn't tend to fall apart. As it happens I was also on 37 but we had an F after the number!

Funnily enough I was only just talking to Mrs TTN about Aden yesterday. When we were outside the camp in civvies we certainly weren't armed, but always armed when in uniform, of course. I was there in 1966, I suspect by 1967 things had tightened up considerably.
