Sergeant "Scruff" McGough

This is an obituary that I read a litle while ago but looking through the massive archives of Hackery I found it again and thought it might be interesting but any obituary that has a sub-head of

Member of the Special Boat Service who held an Afghan fortress though beseiged by hundreds of Taliban

has to be read

Now read on

a few more (this seems to have gone dead) however this youtube video maybe relevant is Scruff here?
