Derek served in both the RM's and the RAF. He came up from the ranks in the Corps achieving the rank of Captain. He was one of the first SNCO's within the Corps of Royal Marines to ...

Long gone. My first Section Cpl in 40CDORM left to join them after his nine years as he was a Rhodesian called "Tug" Wilson. Often wonder how he got on as I've never heard from him since.
