I was in the Liverpool Scottish army cadets with Chris Hennessy . He went on to join 4 Para TA then became a regular soldier in 3 Para prior to passing selection.
 
I also remember meeting his younger brothers Paul and Colin on an aeroplane returning from Germany. 30 years later I bumped into Paul and reminded him.
