It is with much sadness that we advise you of the death yesterday, 5th November 2013, of one of our members, Ernest Taylor, a veteran of Nos 4 and 6 Commandos. Our thoughts are with all his family friends at this sad time. Ernest would have been at FW with us this year along with the Geordie boys and he will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
Rest in peace Ernest

God and the Soldier, all men adore, In time of danger and not before.
When the danger is passed and all things righted, God is forgotten, and the Soldier slighted.

I talked with him last year at FW - very moving.
I am so very sorry to hear of his passing. RIP Mr Taylor ... and thank you.

If I have praised my comrades too highly I make no apology, for they were beyond all praise.
