I received the MBE for support to the families of soldiers killed or wounded in Afghanistan and the Gulf as a Visiting Officer, nearly in double figures now.

Neither, Princess Royal, Anne. Had a really good chat as her ex-was an officer in my old lot before I jumped ship.

Very well done Ian, you do a job that I would imagine none of us envy.
As others have already said this is a very well deserved honour for you for all the hard work and support you have put in (and I would imagine in the background so to speak) dealing with families at a very difficult time, we are all proud of you.

HERO. Iv done 5 operational tours and lost some good friends over the years. Some right infront of my own eyes.
People (especially civvies) don't understand how hard it is to walk up someone's drive and give them the bad news that a loved one has died or been badly injured on Ops. Heroes like you make a massive difference.
Hats off to you mate......UBIQUE!
