Ready to stop the Red Hordes - Berlin, 1969.
Private Archie Mac Laine of the 1st Battalion, Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders (Princess Louise's),
at the controls of an FV -432 in the divided city of Berlin during the Cold War.
This vehicle was the most common tracked vehicle in the British Army in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and was similar to the Canadian M113. Private Mac Laine served in the Argylls - the British Army affiliate Regiment of the Calgary Highlanders - for 27 years and at one point served alongside the late Warrant Officer Bruce Waterhouse, who served a tour of duty with the Argylls including service in Northern Ireland. The Warrant Officer Bruce Waterhouse Memorial Award is presented each year to the person deemed most worthy by the Warrant Officers of the Regiment. |
