I have known the Cooks for some time. Before the formation of the Royal Logistic Corps in 1993 one of its predecessors was the Army Catering Corps and there was a natural affinity between the two organisations. The Royal Logistic Corps fully supported keeping these linkages going and the Cooks, along with the Carmen, Gold and Sylver Wyre Drawers and Launderers were the original four. Since then the list has grown with an increasing number of unit affiliations, such as 151 Regiment RLC(V) with the Marketors. When I was Head of the Royal Logistic Corps in the late nineties the then Master Cook, Don Hodgson, made me most welcome.
The Company has interesting court members and I found debate about catering and the livery companies particularly interesting. The Drapers' Company runs its own in-house catering and banqueting organisation and we seek to maintain the highest standards in a competitive market place. I understand the current Warden, Bev Puxley, is keen to highlight the catering aspects of the livery movement if elected Master next year.
