Gnr Grant Guy MC
I was just reading the most recent honours list, when I came across this:
"Gunner Grant Guy of The Royal Regiment of Artillery is also awarded the Military Cross for his extreme bravery and utter selflessness. In site of his junior rank he helped the company prevail by taking charge at critical moments of a desperate situation. Gnr Guy repeatedly placed himself in extreme danger in order to extract a comrade from the killing area". ((c) MOD).
Tell that man to "take a "Well Done"" and if you see him, buy him a beer.Guinness. It's the first food group.

Re: Gnr Grant Guy MC
Very well done Gunner!
Do we know which regiment he's from? (if not breaking OPSEC and/or PERSEC)The harder the fighting and the longer the war, the more the infantry and in fact all the arms, lean on the Gunners - Field Marshal Montgomery.

He is 7(Sphinx) Bty. A really good bloke. When I knew him I always thought he would go on to be a cracking soldier and there you go.
