    Yours sincerely,
    signature
    Sgt/SSgt/Wo2 etc [full name]
    Bty/Sqn/Coy...

    Anyways, thats how I'd do it.
    That's a good way, but start with ...Sir, as you will already have his name and title in the correspondance address! keep it short and to the point, don't bullshit! no more than 3 paragraphs...Intro ....explain reason....finish!!

    Better make the reason a good one, 'cos he will check as i take it from the fact that you feel you need to write a letter in the first place that it is the Mess's Christmas Ball that you cannot attend or a three line whip function!!

    hope this helps

    I wouldn't bother it's not a talking book!
    A war hasn't been fought this badly since Olaf the Hairy, High Chief of all the Vikings, accidentally ordered 80,000 battle helmets with the horns on the inside.
