[QUOTE="geronimo, post: 43965, member: 392"] Sadly David has passed on as I have just been told by Matteo over in Italy. I only met him once to discuss him memories of operation Tombola and have to say never have I met a more forthcomming and welcoming host. A true Gentleman and a very funny man. His sight was failing when I met him but this didnt seem to slow him down at all, and it was a wonder to watch him manouver even with his ailment. A True Battler and a credit to the Lineage of the Special Air Service both during and after his service. Our thoughts are with his family at this difficult time and hope that they find solace in the knowledge that he had friends all over the world who know it is a lesser place without him. [/QUOTE]
