CHARITABLE ADVERTISING on Web Site There are many worthwhile charitable causes in existence, but we can only accept sponsorship or fundraising efforts on Fusilier Association websites, that specifically support approved Fusilier charities. This essentially means that it is acceptable to use these pages to seek sponsorship for The Fusiliers Aid Society (which includes Fallen Fusiliers), and The Fusilier Memorial fund only. We now have our own dedicated justgiving site (http://www.justgiving.com/fusiliersaidsociety), which you can use to help raise money for your cause. If you let RHQ (Asst Regt Sec) know the specific cause you are raising money for, it will be directed to the correct fund.

Eric and I go back a long way he used to visit my dad years ago he even came to see me the day before I joined up to wish me well we lost touch for a while then. After I left the army I started up the Fusilier Krypton Factor Eric helped me set it up which was very successful for 14 years we had many a good time doing it one fun thing that happened was we needed to feed the helpers Eric said he would good to the local chippy and order some pies and we could heat them up in our caravan this was great until the day came Eric got the pies we went to put them in the oven but found the caravan did not have one Eric says I know we'll put them under the grill which he did but of course we forgot about them they came out like bits of coal. Then there was the time Eric Carried Gemma Full length of the Assault course on his back . Then there was the trip to the Isle of Man with the Band my Gemma who was 4 had a imaginary Bobby but Eric did not know it was not real she had him looking all over the place for Bobby he even had a girl it a caf� help look for bobby In the end we told him but even then she had him walking down the prom with a lead with nothing on the end of it Gemma still remembers it. Some great memories Col Eric you will be Sadly missed by so many people and organisations. Now its time to hang up your boots RIP Stand Easy my condolences to Marjorie and your family I am sure you will remember a lot of the times I have mentioned and many many more
