Tribute to a warrior

Just a short tribute to Stan Perry, last surviving troop commander of the Sherwood Rangers, who died yesterday morning aged 97.

I was privileged to spend an hour at the “We Have Waysof Making You Talk” “Warfest” weekend just 19 days ago listening to his reminiscences from Normandy 1944.
His remarkable experiences were delivered in a matter of fact and humorous way which kept the audience spellbound, and earned two standing ovations.

Thank you Stan. Rest in peace. You have earned it.
