I remember when Dinger from Combatsim's EAW forum died.
Some of us sent money to one of the forum members and he donated it to the RAF Museum in London.
Dinger didn't say it outright, but it seems he was in the SAS in the Gulf War and whatever chemical/bio agent he was exposed to, it got his liver in the end. He liked to talk about Mosquitos, as his Grandfather had been ground crew for them during the war.
Dinger left a wife and infant behind when he left on his final mission...
<S> Dinger!!!
