When John was the SSF Sgt Maj, I had a bad landing once and was laid up in the hospital in Pet. John came around later that night and asked if there was anything I needed. I replied "something to read, and how about a cold beer!" Guess what I had brought to me the next morning!

John Marr. Class act.

I agree. John Marr is a class act. I hadnt seen him for years until the Airborne reunion in Pet last year and the man still looks good to go. Spent some time chatting with him - real class act indeed! He should sit down with Taliban Jack and His wife the Chow and explain the honourable traits that the Canadian Serviceman/Servicewoman have and how they as politicians are not fit to shine our boots. Of course they would tremble at meeting a man of honour.
