The Guards Depot, Pirbright – Official Handbook 1977/76
It’s great to look back on the handbooks that were given to potential recruits. Take a look at the handbook below.




Grenadier Guards & Coldstream Guards

Scots Guards & Irish Guards

Plus some very smart members of the Corps of Drums.






BUT, LET’S NOT FORGET the AWESOME ‘BOOBS’ (seconds/rejects) advert on the left.
“If you like BOOBS” (of the manufacturers type)





A fascinating look, thanks so much to Dave M for sending us the scans of his handbook, greatly appreciated.
