Ah, dear old Rupert. We joined the RN together and just over two weeks ago the survivors of our entry had a 50th anniversary weekend celebration of that event at the Britannia Royal Naval College, Dartmouth - see group photo
here . At our dinner Rupert's name was read out as one of those no longer with us and we remembered him in our toast to Absent Friends. A greatly missed pal.
