Sean I haven't seen you in number of years and was delighted to see you to fine young man and soldier you become. You a credit to your family and country and served so that others may live in a safe and secure environment. I worked at home with your Dad at home and abroad that brought back some fonds memories at this sad time. You have by all accounts achieved so much in such short time and is an indicator of the positive influence of your mam, serving uncles, family, DF Comrades and extended family. There are no words or excuses of an incidental nature that can justify what has occurred but only to say we are all proud of you, trooper. Rest easy.
