#ffttet£ Club Annual Binner
THE 1980 Officers Club Dinner was again held at the Head-
quarters Mess in Deepcut. Some two hundred members dined—
slightly less than attended last year, perhaps due to current
transport difficulties, but an ideal number for the event.
The dinner was this year conducted, with great success, by
the Mess staff—an arrangement which surely must be continued
into future years.
In an entertaining and amusing speech the Representative
Colonel Commandant, Major General Minogue, reviewed the
year's Corps events and presented one of this years Corps
Awards for Achievement to Major J. H. Canmer—the other two
recipients will receive their awards in BAOR. A review of the
circumstances under which the 1980 awards were achieved was
given on page 174 of the November issue of THE GAZETTE.
As ever there were many friends to meet and old acquain-
tances to renew; it was a particularly pleasant, family occasion.
The annual dinner is always an enjoyable event—and very
good value in these cost conscious times. Next year it will be
held on 23rd October and members of the RAOC Officers Club
should put it in their diaries now.
The venue will again be Headquarters Officers Mess.
