Rioch, Bruce Is there any chance of making contact with Bruce? His father was my Regimental Sergeant Major when I was an Army Cadet in The Perse School, Cambridge Contingent. I have recently completed my autobiography, and would dearly love a photo (in uniform?) of RSM Rioch to accompany the account of my cadet activities and the part played in them by the truly admirable James Rioch. If you could forward this to Bruce, or suggest a different possible line of communication, I should be most grateful. Thanks. Ian J. Burton.
