The Stolen Baby

A Memory of Hereford.

I was a soldier at Bradbury Lines when this happened.
The Father of the baby was our Troop Lieutenant ...Richard Vincent.
He was a lovely man and well liked by we boy soldiers.
We never saw him again....no doubt he was given a long spell of compassionate leave.
But 30 years or so later he had risen through the ranks to be Field Marshall Sir Richard Vincent and was in charge of NATO !
I have very fond memories of my three years in Hereford.....drinking scrumpy at sevenpence a pint.....boating on the river....we guarded the Queen when she visited in (about) 1957.....she was going to the Cathedral to open an exhibition of the Mappa Mundi.
