2nd Bn Officers, Burma 1944

A caricature of Capt W C Dickson, he appears to be covered in red fur with a blue backside and a long tail which is holding a back ring, he is holding two further rings in his hands, the image is called "The only blue based gibbon in captitvity" In an album of caricatures with humourous captions depicting officers of the 2nd Battalion, Royal Norfolk Regiment whilst in Burma 1944. Drawn on white paper which is stuck into the scrapbook with the description: CAPT W.C. DICKSON. "Dicko", "The Gibbon" or "Bill", or just "Water Closet" Dickson joined the Bn at Kigwema from the Royal Artillery, and in no time at all had risen to the height of Bn I.O. However, with great promptitude he deputised for Creepy on LIAP. He later became Adjutant. A noted Orangeman, he had obviously kissed the Blarney Stone. His telescopic reach at Tenikoits earned him both nickname and cartoon. "USNS AND YOUSENS"
