This must be our first day, with our "nursemaids" who have probably just taught us how to pin our bands.
Nursemaids at the back: Pearl, Ashton, Hawkins
Squits in the front row: Wexler, Liles, Blogg
That's what I wrote on the back of the photo at the time, but now, with an uncertain and fading memory, I doubt one of those names.
Paterson and Brown also joined Col A at the same time, but they were, I think, moving up from the Prep, so they perhaps needed no nursemaid.
