3. LyndonB: I remember Mad Mitch. I’ve met him. I was at school with his son in Surrey in the 60’s. All the boys at my prep school were gobsmacked when he came round, and he even joined in on the school’s sports day. A long long time ago, but I haven’t forgotten.

   If you want more details, PM me on my email in my profile.

   Peiper: The warrior breed still exists, but they are increasingly rare. With the institutional gnawing away at the armed forces’ traditions by this pusillanimous Labour government, young men are finding other things to do.
