To the young mans family,
Private Sean Tait of The Royal Regiment of Scotland.
I promise you that even in two months of service, your son had encountered more camaraderie than ever in his life. He was serving his country and he loved what he was doing, I write to you as an ex serviceman with a son of a similar age. I used to be a pilot on the aircraft type that your son so sadley lost his life on. Rest assured the crew were the best trained in the business, I and hundreds of others join you in mourning the loss of your son, as we mourn the Death of the Captain and the Crewman so much. We cannot console you, so I will not, but I assure you that I still try to find a way to bring you and your family some peace through my prayers. My thoughts are with you
I can only offer you my support as a young man from Glasgow (South) who tried to choose a simiilar path
