My Uncle
Just wanted to say a few words about my Uncle that passed away a couple of weeks ago and was cremated on Monday.
He died aged 42 after 18 years of service in the REME. He was seriously injured in an accident involving a tank in Iraq in GW2. The accident left him requiring heavy doses of morphine, daily. Well it was all too much for his body to take and it looks like his organs gave up the battle and he died of organ failure.
Apparently he had saved a child's life by risking his own in Bosnia, and was mentioned in dispatches, whatever the **** that is, to no other than the person responsible for his early death.
So thank you Tony Blair, for taking my Uncle from his son and the rest of the family.

I'm sorry for your loss, PP. So sad for someone so young. Saving a child's life is worth more than any mention, but acknowledgment for anything is always good. God bless.

PP, I can only add my condolences to those already expressed here by others. Try to remember the good times you enjoyed with him though they may be few as he surely spent much time away.
