    Just had this message from Terry.

    I became a Royal Engineer at 17 and served for 9 years, they were the best times of my life. I have been humbled to the point, dare I say it, to tears, at the compassion you have shown me and my family and the donations that I've received tonight from you. I will be getting my medals back in the morning and will give them to someone to keep safe. I cannot say thank you enough. Hurrah for the C.R.E and all servicemen.

    This whole thing has humbled me Richard and I'm just glad that we could show Terry the respect we feel. If its made Terry smile and see the world a wee bit differently, could we honestly ask for more.
