George Brian Hopkinson (GBH)Deceased 5th.February 1988 I served with "Hoppy"in 16 Para Wksps s/section, 1957-60 he was our O.C. He was the nicest man I ever met in the Army. I was devistated to hear that he had passed away. He transfered to JLB with me. I have been to his place of rest, in Peak District national park and tended his grave and placed flowers on it. When he was at JLB he was OC of Steevens House (I think). My wife and I used to baby sit his daughter when she was first borne. Now she has a her own family (how time flies) I am 70 now and live in good old Aldershot.Regards Cpl. Bernie Tharme(Punchy) 1st. May 2008
