I was very saddened to see that Tony Bushnall has been taken from us at such an early age. Tony was a young sergeant and then staff sergeant when I had the honour to command 81 and then 90 Ordnance Company in 1983-84. It was a very difficult time but I was blessed with a superb team right across the rank structure. In fact no OC could have had a better company. Tony was one the stars, I knew that he would get to top and was so pleased that he did. Before my time, but I learnt that his performance and leadership in the Falklands was superb and I don't think was recognised. We had a lot of fun as he had a mischievous and infectious sense of humour which cheered everyone when the things got tough. There is many a story that I could tell! A superb soldier, leader, a kindly gentleman and great footballer. My sincere condolences to Debbie and his family.
Tony Wilson-Ing, February 2012
