Three short, silent films of BB activities in days gone by. They were on a videotape which belonged to my late father, John (Jock) Smith of the 5th company, and which I have recently digitised. I hope that they will be of interest to some of you here. Inverness Battalion Camp - Carrbridge, 1950 - 11 minutes. The only person that I recognise is my father, ducking his head at 09:34-09:35 as the camera sweeps along the line of people. Inverness Battalion Camp - Carrbridge, 1953 - 6.5 minutes. 01:16 - Lamont Graham - Scoobs - walking backwards, directing the litter pickers 02:13 - line-up of officers includes Scoobs, Herb MacDonald?, George Fraser, Ian (Flash) Reid and Jimmy Robertson 06:14 - Scoobs again, watching the cricket Inverness Battalion 50th Anniversary - New Colours and Church Parade - 04 & 05 June 1960 - 5 minutes Ironically, the most recent film has the worst quality of the three. It looks like there was a parade to and display at the Northern Meeting Park, followed next day by a march past at the Town House and a service in the Methodist church on Union Street. I don't recognise anyone in it. I don't have any more films like this. I have many large boxes of still photographs which I intend to digitise over the coming months (years, probably), so if I find anything which may be of interest I'll post it here. Garry Smith
