Following Tony Tustin's reminder about the beginnings of 16 Field, Brian Jerry Meyer thought that 29 August 1950 might be the founding date and official birthday of the regiment, first commanded by LtCol J W Moodie RNZA.
-----But Harry Honnor, last of the original RF officers, says with authority that 16 Field became an official unit on completion of Corps training, when it paraded for the first time as a complete regiment on 27 October 1950.
