This page has two functions: firstly, to keep you up-to-date with the next issue, and secondly, to give you the contents of the latest magazine. Later, I hope to add links to parts of previous magazines for you to download and read at leisure.

1. We intended bringing out a special Diamond Anniversary edition of the magazine last year for publication in the autumn. This one-off issue was to have contained articles on aspects of the history of BFES, SCEA and SCE, as well as other articles of interest. 

Unfortunately the rising costs of publishing a high quality magazine, combined with a reduction in subscriptions, has meant that the Association cannot currently fulfil its aim of publishing the magazine.  Instead, it is hoped to include some articles within the termly Newsletter over the next few issues.

2. The last magazine was published in September 2004 and the contents  included:

Chat on a Hot Tin Plate - Bob Parkin

Forty Years of Friendship - Mary Lappage

A Dream Come True - Viv Miller

A Little Town in Germany - Margot Pyman

A Travelling Companion - Vera Lowe

Fetlocks and Frolics - John Monkhouse

It's Not the Same - Mike Bennett

Secondary Schooling in China - J Kenwrick Jones

On Becoming a QAS - Kathleen Phelan

See Naples and Retire - Sue Adams

Army Children's Schools (part 3) - Peter Gaskell

Memories of St Clement's School Rheindahlen - Helen Bona

The Association Archive - Peter Hall

Army School Regulations 1882 (part 2) - Ron Meacham

CORRECTION: The address of the Honorary Membership Secretary is not as given in the Magazine - it is as given on the Join Us page of this website.

There are now just a handful of copies left. If you would like a free copy, please contact the editor (see Contact page).

2.  Future Magazines

As the magazine was so expensive to produce and distribute, the committee decided in 2005 to replace it with a Newsletter of 4 or 8 pages to be issued 3 or 4 times a year. A newsletter is much cheaper to produce. Furthermore, it enables members to be kept up-to-date more frequently and hopefully encourage more articles, perhaps of shorter length.

Those who have submitted articles to the Magazine Editor will hopefully be pleased to know that he is soon going to put them in a series of supplements to the Newsletter, so that your efforts will not have been wasted.

If you have a view on any of the above then please contact any member of the committee (addresses on the Contact page).
