    I sadly read this evening that Sandy Thomas former soldier in the NZ and British Armies recently passed away in Queensland, Australia aged 98. He had quite the varied and long career.

    I've said it a few times on here before but Sandy was my Great-Great Uncle's Company commander from Embarkation in 1940 through to Sandy's capture on Crete in capture in May 1941.

    Highly recommend his book Dare to be Free.

    Highly decorated New Zealand soldier Major-General Walter "Sandy" Thomas dies
