Your father was the Training Officer for we midshipmen of Supplementary List Entry 1/1977. By his personal example he set us on the path to our Naval careers and, by extension, our future lives. A privilege to have known him. Condolences. Michael (Blue) Doyle.

Colin was my boss at AMSA. A thorough gentleman. I had a lot of time for him - lovely chap. Travelled overseas with Colin on business on occasions.and enjoyed his company. Saw Mama Mia in London with him. Colin introduced me to you, Katy when you were in Grammar school.
