Tiger-pie Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Hundreds of former members of Australia's Special Air Service Regiment and their families have spent the week at Perth's Campbell Barracks celebrating the unit's 50th Anniversary. For many it was the first time that they had set foot in Campbell Barracks since their serving days. It was the chance to meet up with old mates that had these diggers coming to Perth from all over Australia and overseas.Regards;Johnsy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
