Jean and Roland

Roland:
in the services - transported fuels and oil
fireman
builder

in the services i used to drive a 10 ton wagon transporting fuels, oils and lubricants for vehicles. if we were going on a scheme you'd maybe have to be away a week or fortnight at a time so you had to keep going getting loaded up, and fetch it all back again. it was just me driving, they were long days and nights. i also drove a big cols Crain for a long time.

it had a cage with a lock on so nobody but me could get in it.


i would drive the cols grain and then a mate of mine, woudl drive the wagon itself that the crain was on,  so i said right, when i give you a pip, my gibes down,  and you can move away.
