OBITUARY

We regret to announce the death of Pte."Duggie" McKinnon in a parachuting accident. "Duggie" was one of the most popular members of the Platoon and will be sorely missed. The funeral was a private one, but a party of us managed to attend and pay our last tributes, afterwards accepting the hospitality offered us by his family. To his family and many friends in Barrhead we offer our deepest sympathy and condolences.
