Three more fallen heroes repatriated
Funeral courtege passes through Wootton Bassett
Corporal Tom Gaden from Taunton, Rifleman Jamie Gunn and Lieutenant Corporal Paul Upton all from the 1st Rifles Battalion were flown into RAF Lyneham this morning. Their arrival means that seven casualties alone from the 1st Rifles have been repatriated in last two months.
"It's truly touching seeing how many are gathered here showing their appreciation for all those fighting," said Annie Moore, High Sheriff of Somerset, who attended for the first time to pay her respects.
"Tom Gaden lied in Taunton and it's a sad day for everyone in the town." |
