From Dave Morris – 26 March 2014:
Class 112 swearing in 15.9.67 – rain had washed out the parade so we were moved indoors. I recall Barry Elliott being front row on the left, not sure who is next but then Phil Roots and I remember Phil and Barry were real good mates. About the only other I can place is front row 2nd from the right, Barry Faint and I think the tall Constable with the cap on is Jeff Jarratt, having already been sworn in on his birthday prior to the parade, as Cadets were.
