MILITARY MUGS
TA Rifles Officer, Tristram Carter, has recently set up in business selling military mugs. He tells us that his mugs are unique in that they are not the normal “cap badge” based design as he has teamed up with the military artist, Tim Reese, to produce mugs that depict figures dressed in the uniforms of a specific regiment or campaign. The mugs are both colourful and, he promises, accurate in their representation of a Regiment or campaign.
Tristram sells the mugs through his shop, QM’s Locker, on Ebay and they retail at £6.95 each. However, if you contact him direct and mention Care for Casualties, he will give a donation of £1 from the sales price to the appeal. You can contact Tristram by email at qmslocker@hotmail.co.uk.
To check out his range of mugs you can access his Ebay shop through this link: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/gmslocker. Keep checking out the store as Tristram will be adding new mugs at regular intervals.

Alan Maier's War - Letters Home 1941-1945
Edited bt John Bendit
Alan Maier joined the King's Royal Rifle Corps in August 1941, fresh from school, and was commissioned eight months later into The Rifle Brigade. He was severely wounded in North Africa, where he spent seven months in hospital, and then joined the 2nd Battalion The Rifle Brigade. He took part in the magnificent disaster at Tossignano, Italy, where he was captured, and spent the last five months of the war in a POW camp in Germany.
In these lively and affectionate letters home to his mother and father he describes, with touching enthusiasm, army life and his new world. The reader can follow the gradual development of his personality as his initial naivety gives way to increasing maturity and reflection.
Profits from the sale of this book will be given to Care for Casualties.
