INDEX TO OTHER PAGES PAGE THE COVER PHOTOGRAPH SERGEANT LEEK of the Employment Training School instructs soldiers in fire fighting duties at Deepcut As ever the Services move in to fill the breach in times of National emergency and these past few weeks have been no exception. In cold, difficult and often dangerous conditions all over the country the teams have met the situation as well as their limited training and out-dated equipment will allow. By the beginning of December almost two and a half thousand men had been given instruction at Blackdown Barracks in such unfamiliar subjects as ladder work, hose running and on the now famous—or should it be infamous, Green Goddesses. Training has gone on as long as daylight has allowed—in conditions which have often damped every- thing but the soldiers traditional sense of humour, as the Employment Training School reports on page 236.
