Not ashamed to say I had a lump in my throat when I heard the news, I am honoured and proud to have served Her Majesty, Her Country and Her Commonwealth. My proudest moment was when in 42 Commando RM we paraded our colours and Battle Honours in front of Her Majesty on Her Silver Jubilee culminating with a private dinner in our Mess, she stayed at the dinner with Prince Philip until after midnight dancing and having fun. A wonderful strong woman with an immense presence and sense of humor. God Save The King.
One especially for you
Bruce , as you know the Royals have many connections down here at BRNC (as do you) and much affection so losing this devoted couple within the space of two years is a big one.
