Very shocked to hear this about the passing of Ray (Paki) Beadon

A very true and true Green Jacket and a brilliant RFN

No doubt there will be a few stories but the one has got to be when

we were in Celle 68/70 and you joined us as a young NIG when you jumped out

of one of the windows from C Coy block with a gollock.

The best one to tell this story will be Dave A

RIP (Paki) and no doubt you should have met up with all those others from 3 RGJ

Gondolences to your family

One of the nicest men I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. We served together in 'R coy' - a true

and loyal friend. My sincere condolences to family and friends... J

Such a quiet and unassuming man but one hell of a good soldier. Always someone that I could rely on when he was one of my section commanders in Ireland and Malaya. Rest in peace my good friend, you will always be forever green.

Condolences to your family
