A cairn at the Lossie Mess, built by 39 Engineer Regiment is also to be a permanent memorial.

Adam and Hywel

I was on Sqn with both of these guys as they went through TW in 2011. Two lovely blokes and also, in a cruel twist of fate, amongst the tiny minority of students on 19 Sqn who avoided the flying training cull.
Sadly they were also on the same course as Steven 'Baz' Barrett who was murdered in Scotland recently.
RIP gents.
