Wakey Wakey, all you currently serving and ex "Royal Marines" we need your
help. For nearly 40 years "Dutchy Hollands" burger van has served the corp,
first at Bickleigh camp, then latterly at CTCRM Lympstone, first run by
Dutchy senior,former HW Jim Holland, then his son Jim "Junior" Holland. The
MOD in their infinate wisdom are introducing a new system called "Pay as you
dine", as part of this systems far reaching changes, they are bringing in a
big "multi-corp" to run it, along with the leisure facilities formerly run
by the NAAFI and other facilities within the camp. This new scheme will
destroy the livelyhoods of many small traders who for years have faithfully
served the MOD, many such as Dutchy, working long late hours to provide a
service to troops returning to base late after exercise when all other
facilities on base are closed.
We at S.O.D (Save Our Dutchy) wish to highlight not only the threat to
close the business's at CTCRM, but the threat to other similar traders on
military bases throughout the UK, Dutchys is merely the first of many.
Please help, if you would like to visit our SOD, website at:

Thanks for reading this post


Dutchy (Junior)
