TWO North-East soldiers whose duties have taken them round the world are returning to the region for a recruitment drive.
Corporal William Hall, from Darlington, and Private Steven Dowson, from Stockton, will share their experiences of serving in Bosnia, Canada, Cyprus and the Falkland Islands as part of a team of recruitment staff.
They will tell young people about their life in the 1st Battalion, The Green Howards, based in Wiltshire, assisting in trials of future infantry equipment and weapons, and providing an enemy in battle simulations, on Salisbury Plain.
Cpl Hall, 30, is trained to drive armoured vehicles and has skills in stress and trauma support.
Pte Dowson is one of The Green Howards' best boxers, having won the army championships last year.
For further information on the dates and venues of recruitment events, contact David Winpenny on (01765) 608320, or Roger Chapman on (01748) 826561.
