I think the chap you are refering to subsequently left the Service and has since died of cancer
Shame, he was a great Sqn Boss, that's if your talking about the officer who took the wrap for the missing case but who was rumoured to have been a scapegoat for a more senior officer,
Impiger: Correct on one count (leaving the Service,) but I don't think DF would be pleased to learn of his (allegedly) early demise!!
AP:
Concur, and have also heard that version of events from other sources too!!
