COVER PHOTOGRAPH THE Champion is chaired off the ranges by his colleagues. At this year's small arms meeting at Bisley a member of our CVHQ Shooting Team won the Queen's Medal. Lance Corporal Phil Weatherby who has been with RAOC TA for four years beat all comers from the Territorial Army—and showed them quite convincingly, that non Infantry Units are able to beat them at their own game. Lance Corporal Weatherby was also the Corps rifle champion for the third time at the Corps Small Arms Meet- ing held on Ash Ranges in May. (See August issue of THE GAZETTE). Within the shooting world the team name of RAOC CVHQ has become well known. They have four Corps championships to their credit, plus now three Queen's Medallists—who between them hold no less than six Queen's Medals! Sergeant Trevor Haynes has won three and W02 Jack Meynell has the unique distinction of being the only person to ever win the medal with the old Mk IV and then with the SLR several years later. The team was started some ten years ago and since that time has built a reputation by winning competitions, both in- dividual and team, in every year of its existence. |
