Very sad news indeed. Worked for Rocky when he was Station Commander RAF Bruggen and then again when he was Chief of Staff HQ Airnorth at Ramstein. Irrepressible sense of humour mixed with intelligence and innate leadership skills - a fantastic boss to work for. One of my fondest memories is of sitting with him on a NATO call when Sir Rocky told an inappropriate joke on the VTC which, despite my attempts off camera to try to get him to stop, upset the French delegation! Needless to say, he spent the rest of the afternoon on the phone to various 3 and 4 star officers apologising! My deepest condolences to Liz and the girls.
Blue Skies Sir!
