C Coy. Boxing Team, 1954/55

"Dear Sir,
I've just been looking on the Lincolnshire Regiment website. One of the photos, titled 'C.Coy boxing team 1954-55', has my Late father on it. He is positioned on the 2nd row on the far right end. His name is Alan Cobb L/CPL 22995015 and he served in Malaya between 1955 and 1957. Prior to this was stationed in Berlin.
(I have been looking for any photos of this time just in case he was on any.)
Yours,
Richard Cobb
Newark 18th March 2011"
