Flt Lt 'Rak' Chauhan R.I.P

[Melchett01]

As if to serve as a reminder to us all that there is no longer a 'front line' in modern warfare, the Int Branch laid to rest its first fatality from either TELIC or HERRICK today. A solemn day for a small Branch.

Hundreds of people line Leicester's Golden Mile for funeral of Flt Lt Rakesh Chauhan | Leicester Mercury (http://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/Leicester-soldier-s-funeral-takes-place/story-21127342-detail/story.html)

It seemed fitting to start a new thread to give Flt Lt Chauhan a PruNe farewell.

Melchett, you are absolutely correct. Never knew this officer but he clearly earned the respect of all who knew him. A general all-round good egg. Leicester did him proud.

RIP, next time I'm in Loughborough I'll pop in and pay my respects.

RIP fellow branch colleague.

Just before the end of the campaign too.:sad:

Praemonitus Praemunitus

Melchett - check your PMs.

And this gentlemans death has achieved what, I wonder?

When it comes to wars, it's hard to beat Afghanistan for pointlessness.

RIP Sir.
