This is very sad news. I took over PMC of the WO's and Sjt's Mess from John in Omagh. I think he was the last PMC of 2RGJ and the first of 1RGJ. I remember him always as being a character and loving the odd Brandy.
So sorry to hear of Johns passing. We joined up together at the Battersea recruiting office on July 22nd 1964. We had been pals for years roaming the streets of Battersea in the early sixties.
