September 2000 The Regiment's commanding officer for more than ten years, First Lieutenant J. D. Spencer, has decided to resign his commission, and Kirby Hall was his last battle in charge. The regiment presented him with a couple of bottles of J. D. as a small token of their appreciation. A more permanent tribute will be presented at the end of the year. J. D. will continue as an active member of the regiment as a private in the ranks, whenever his other committments allow. First Sergeant Andy Shaw will take over command of the regiment, as he has so nobly done during J. D.'s absences this year. Andy will be promoted to the rank of Lieutenant, in due course. At Kirby Hall, members of the Regiment voted Private Mike Bussey to be the new Sergeant and effectively second-in-command. Mike has previously been regimental (and army) commander and agreed to take on the role for the 2001 season, only because the other officers and NCO's were relatively short of experience in these positions, and it was hoped that Mike would help them through the transitional year without J. D. So the proposed command structure for 2001 will be as follows:-
