Today’s the 20th Anniversary of the my mate Pte Leonard (Lenny) Manning who was KIA while on a Patrol in Timor-Leste with BCoy 2/1 Battalion as a part of NZBATT2 Battalion Group under a UN Peacekeeping Mandate for Timor-Leste .
The Black Beret represents his service in WAI/WEC SQN, the Bayonet represents his service BCoy in 2nd/ 1st Battalion RNZIR, the can of beer in QAMR stubby cooler is the many beers we drunk on Crewmen’s and later at Burnham Camp home to both NZ Scots & 2/1 Battalion
The images were taken early this morning just before dawn
