A friend, a Sergeant, a Royal, a person who I looked up to, has passed away at age 71. John was everything a Royal could be and more.  I'll remember him for the courage that he showed the compassion and the friendship he gave.  My heartfelt condolences to his family. May you R.I.P old friend.

I remember Sgt. McArdle , 1 Bn. in Germany in the early '60's. He was a good role model. Rest in peace John.  Hugh Conway
