Arborfield 62C Intake 10th September 1962

Some 129 of us arrived at the camp gate on the 10th September 1962, we lost some and gained some over the next 3 years and passed out as qualified tradesmen to our relevant posting after our Passing Out Parade on the 12th August 1965.

I have listed the names from the Junior Coy intake, and will add those who joined our Div as and when I have the correct information. The list is published by kind permission of the The Arborfield Old Boys Association.  I have been gathering information and photos from various sources of Old Boys and you can view these using the navigation buttons, I could always do with more items to publish. Sadly there will be those who haven't made it this far, those names I know are listed on our “Roll of Honour” (Roll of Honour) page and would be pleased to hear from anyone who knows of any further of our number who have passed away. All your comments, additional information, mistakes spotted and any photographs, will be gratefully received,
