Today I said farewell to an Army colleague with many many of my kind in attendance. Gavin Muir was larger than life, an absolute legend of my trade and one of the world’s good guys. I spent 3 months on my Supervisor’s course 30 years ago with him, we travelled the UK and Europe, studied and partied together and he forgave me being an Englishman supporting Celtic. I last caught up with him at the annual Spec Op reunion on 14 May; 12 days later he sadly suddenly passed.
Oh dear, so sad what a shock this must have been for you. We lost a good friend of ours very suddenly a couple of weeks ago I still can't believe he isn't here.
