Wonder can Irish guards experts can any light on this menu signed by members of the Irish Guards.

The front is signed by Alexander of Tunis who is easily researchable!

The back is signed by

Terence O’Neill…..Ulster Unionist, he was prime or first minister of Northern Ireland for a while

Caledon…no idea who he was..but a single name?

Milo Cocker.. no idea who he was

Dan McVictor (sp?) no idea who he was

?? Kennedy no idea who he was

J Hughes no idea who he was

And no idea who the last name is!!

The menu is from May2nd 1964

Mark,

The Caledon was probably Lord Caledon of Tyrone, peers of the realm sign in this fashion. The present Lord Caledon is I think the Lord Lt. of County Tyrone.

Is there any date on this menu? Kipling's book The Irish Guards in the Great War lists casualties and the names of officers. This might be of some use to you.
