Back in the 60s I was hauled in to the Boss and told that as I was O i/c Guard of Honour I had just won the job of arranging the cremation at Norwich of a Flt Sgt who had died and had no relatives. As a 24 year old I found the whole prospect a bit daunting, until OC Regt and the SWO appeared offering "help and advice". The station gave the guy a first class send off and I was honoured to have been part of it.
