HIS many friends in the Corps will have been grieved to lean of the death of Staff Sergeant Eddy, at Munster, on 24th January, following a short illness.Reg Eddy was well known to many hundreds of recruits, during some six years in 1 Training Battalion RAOC, for his cheerfulness and willingness to help all who approached him. He was held in the highest regard by colleagues and recruits alike.After seeing service with 6 Company RAOC in Hong Kong, he returned to Deepcut for a further three years. On that occasion with the Junior Leaders Battalion.He encouraged many by his example, and his passing brings great sadness to friends not only in Munster but in the Aldershot and Camberley area where he saw most of his service.To his widow, Margaret, his daughters Carol and Elizabeth, and his son Roger, we offer our prayers at this time. Staff Sergeant Eddy was accorded full military honours during the service at Hannover Limmer Cemetery on 30th January.EDITORS NOTE: Contributed by Officer Commanding 87 Supply Depot.
