(The King’s Oversea Dominions Regiment)
The King Edwards Horse had for many years an active Association of Old Comrades, who would hold an annual reunion – the last official reunion being held on 20th May 1972.
Although they continued to meet in an ‘unofficial capacity’, I was reliably informed the last member of the regiment to attend was 591 Trumpeter N.E.J. Masters.
The Old Comrades Bulletin was in existence from Issue 1 in 1933 through to Issue 39 in 1972, I have scanned all the original copies ( my thanks to Ruth Fielding sister of 201 Corporal Morris Glanville Fielding – later Captain MC, Ox & Bucks Light Infantry ).
On the nominal roll list you may find a notation such as ‘OCB’- this indicates a mention in the Old Comrades Bulletin.
Please feel free to inquire if you do see any mention of the OCB – I am very happy to send you a scanned copy of the page mentioned (yes… for free!) , if we are lucky it may contain some great information and perhaps even a photo.
