In conversation with 7 BRIXMIS veterans - Part 1 (268)

<p>In October of 2022, I was asked by the <a href='https://mvt.org.uk/'>West Pennines Military Vehicle Trust</a> to moderate a Q&amp;A session with a number of BRIXMIS veterans.<br/><br/>Part 2 is here <a href='https://coldwarconversations.com/episode270'>https://coldwarconversations.com/episode270</a><br/><br/></p><p>Attending were Drivers Neil Walton, Pete Curran,  Dave Collins and Kev Smith,  plus Sandy Saxton-Warne (Joint operations &amp; weapons) , Mike Hill (Tour officer), Mike Corcoran (Weapons), and Dave Butler (Senior Non Commissioned Officer, Tourer). <br/><br/></p><p>It was an amazing afternoon of reminiscing about their experiences and viewing the amazing collections they had from that time. Don’t miss part 2 which follows next week. <br/><br/></p><p>My good friend Colin Dyter was a massive help with the recording, but a quick note that the audio is not up to the usual quality of Cold War Conversations, due to background noise, but I think the events and activities described definitely make it worth listening to.<br/><br/><br/><b><em>Cold War history is disappearing; however, a simple monthly donation will keep this podcast on the air.
