Where’s The Time Gone

A year ago today we were freezing cold in Harrogate, N Yorkshire, for Joshua’s Passing Out Parade.
It was cold, in the wind -3, but worth the discomfort for one of the proudest days of my life.
A year on and the boyish good looks of the seventeen year old pictured have been replaced by the leaner features of a very fit and athletic young man.
He’s accomplished a good deal in his time in the Army so far and still has more of his training to complete.
