For the yonger element who probably did not know Mick Fann, he was one
of those that you could probably say was a soldier of fortune.
Officer Norfolk Regiment, left under a cloud, joined the French
Foreign Legion, left very quick, joined the Royal Irish Fusiliers,
served for two years with the SAS, back to Fusiliers, champion
heavyweight boxer. He could empty a beer barrell, or the bar - if the
mood took him! Mick was a good friend that helped me out of some very
dodgy situations, usually caused through alcohol. I bet he is still
arguing with someone!
