He was the driver in the leading vehicle of the mobile patrol. Terence, from Birnam, Perthshire, joined the 2nd Bn in 1966 and served the majority of time in the MT Platoon, where he reached the rank of Lance-Corporal. He was an extremely likeable, good natured and competent young NCO, who was a very popular member of the Platoon and the Bn.
