Many may wonder why these  short video’s are relevant to Ron Owen’s website, well for a short period of my life I worked at the Tower of London, just doing Guard duties,( for some photos of myself one at Windsor Castle when I was about 17, (1965),  and one with my parents when I first joined up at 15 (1963)  refer

Yeoman of the Guard Ex Sgt Major Bill Callaghan is brilliantly funny and an excellent teacher. As he is technically still in the British Army his rank as Sgt Major would still be current, so the ex- may not apply.  He is a great example of the senior N.C.Os that instilled in me a love of history which I enjoy to this day.  They were leaders, educators, disciplinarians and entertainers all rolled into one. Inspirational, but no one ever crossed them. Bill for me was a blast from the past, maybe it was the sense of humour as well as the bayonet that conquered the world.  Have a look at the this series of four episodes and braces yourself for real belly laughs.  Up to date 1,250,000. people have viewed these videos.
