Good progress is being made with the formation of an Old Comrades Association in connection with the Devonshire .G.A.. now, the De- vonshire
Heavy Brigade, R.A. (TA.), and it is hoped to make the association a real live organiza- tion, with periodical gatherings and an annual reunion dinner, with, perhaps, one particular night each week set apart as "Old Com- -rades' night at headquarters at Lambhay hill, the Hoe, Plymouth. Some difficulty has been experienc- ed in getting in touch with old comrades owing to lack of names and addresses, but all who served. with the regiment either as Volun- teers, later as Territorials, or dur ing the war years, even whether now serving, are invited to become members, and to send their names and addresses to headquarters. Lord Astor is now the colonel of the regiment. Col. C. W. Blundell has been elected president of the as- sociation, with Col. Rogers the chairman of of the committee. The rules for the association have been approved.
