I have just had 2 minutes silence followed by a large Scotch accompanied by my sister in Canada, who is Sgt At Arms of the Souke branch, Royal Canadian Legion. We were communicating by Skype. It was 1100 hours on 11 Nov. 2011, here in Laos.
And I would like to record my thanks to one Lcpl Vic Grecki, formerly of 2 AES around 1970 - 73. for his comradeship and his unflinching courage in executing his duties.
Vic had a very distinguished career "elsewhere" and is not recorded as having been a Sapper. He died of illness in Copenhagen a few years ago. RIP a very brave man.Last edited by eodmatt; 11-11-2011 at 05:28.

Tragically Noel Cashford, who instigated the Norfolk BD memorial, passed away earlier this year.
Lieutenant Noel Cashford - Telegraph"We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm."

Sapper Elijah Bond of 37 Armoured Engineer Squadron - 35 Engineer Regiment.
Died in the UK yesterday, from injuries sustained on Op Herrick Afghanistan.
RIPI hope all the politicians who were depressed and stressed because they got caught fiddling expenses are feeling better after their 3 months off.
I bet the lads in Afghanistan were worried sick about them.
