Speed was a Newark (anag)


2 Para Reg Support & 2 Rifles on Op Herrick 15: Gary Speed, a sports manager, takes his own life and receives a stupendous amount of respects and homage paid to him today. A soldier from 5 Rifles was also killed today, half Gary's age and died whilst serving our country, yet all he receives is a ten second mention on the radio then the world forgets him. I hate that we live in a world where the only deaths we concern ourselves with are celebrities, not heroes.
