Lets not forget those who leave and end up on the streets, sometimes just through bad luck. Keep an eye out for the ones who slipped between the cracks this yuletide. It nearly happened to me, maybe it could happen to you this year!

My thoughts are with all those who have lost their loved ones on Ops these past few years.

Especially the parents and loved ones of 'Sparky' from 42 Commando, he was my sons mate and won't be home with the others on R&R or at the end of tour.

To absent friends....
