The Royal Marine Family

[Guest]

well, visited our man again today, seems in good spirits, and took some more fruit and nutty down to him, bet he wishes he was back on compo. like i said on my previous post, he seems in good spirits, didn`t stay long, as his family were present, and i didn`t want to intrude. Hopefully going again on Tuesday, yes with even more fruit it`ll be a case of sprinting to the heads, not walking

He has agreed to people sending cards etc, but obviously we don`t want to attract the press, so i will be passing on his name and contact details to Rob, if its ok by him, so anybody wanting to visit/send cards etc, please contact Rob, and post any feed back on here, once again, on our mans behalf, thanks for all the support and kind words, and thats from his family as well, cheers all, trev


if i go on at this rate, i`ll get my Florence nightingale 3`s badge soon

I take it he's not up for the 30 miler then!! Maybe next year? Tell him to get better soon. Saw one of the lads from the hospital on TV today refered to as Commando Smith!!

[Guest]

was he from the burns unit sticky? and if so he was one of the discharged ranks

[Sticky Blue]

Yea he was discharged... speaking in a garden and seemed to have injuries to his neck similar to burns. He explained what happend.

They were pinned down and arty airburst were coming in. The lads were flat down but he caught some up. He seemed to be in fairly good spirits.

Commando Smith... No Mr Sky presenter Marine please!!

[Guest]

Sticky, heard him on the Radio, different contact. 40 Commando were advancing to the start line and were to await "H" hour, when the artillery/mortars opened up, middle of no where and no cover to boot, he had a main artery in his neck severed, has the stiches out this week, and hopes to be back in iraq soon

[Sticky Blue]

and hopes to be back in iraq soon

The Commando spirit!

[Sticky Blue]

Certainly have rum spirits! You'll have to get your mate on here... a bit of p*ss taking and he'll be right as rain. I take it he is itching to get back out there as well...

Nice one mate.

Can you get a really large BASKET sent to Truro? Just in CASE.

aye steve evans

[Guest]

sticky, don`t think our man in hospital will be out before the end of play in iraq, he`s in for at least six months, but saying that, he`s up and about, so i suppose it`ll be down to the Doc.

Steve, i think there`s already a basket case in Truro............er...no offence Rob

[Guest]

just a quickie, our man in hospital says he`ll log on this site and civvie-street once he has come out, and has full use of his digits.....top man, i for one hope that day comes sooner, rather than later
