    Re: Mac Gittings

    Very sad to hear this Tony. Mac was my CSM in the Falklands with Alphas, he was the ideal man for that posting. Old school, but not over the top. I and a few Alpha's boys had great pleasure in having a beer with him at the LOF many years later, he was genuinely chuffed that we'd made it into the mess, against all odds! Deepest sympathy to his family and friends.
