Back then, I used know the ex-SAS NCO that directly rang Hereford from a phone box to tip off the Regt about the siege starting, as my late father was a fellow Met. Police dog handler at the time. I think Dusty was about 4 or 5 years younger than my Dad at the time, so I would think he'll be almost 90 now if he's still with us. I last saw him probably 84/85-ish just before my old man retired from the Met.
