Biography

Upon his death in 1986, his son Richard junior, also a Vicar, came across a suitcase full of papers. Among the old sermons and church meetings were notes on troop movements and drawings of Battalion insignia. There were also two official stand down letters thanking him for his service in Special Duties. Similar ones would have been sent to all Special Duties civilians.
