..Q.1...hi mrvisk...does anyone have any other pics of the Rangers? I`m trying to obtain pics of my late father Sammy the neck...Dad joined the 27th skins in about 1953 and left the Royal Irish Rangers in 1969 when they left Gaza Barracks in 1969 to go back to Germany. He was known as sammy the neck but he was Samuel Henry...
