It is with great sadness that I have to inform members that Mr Melvin James Smith late KOYLI died on 14 Feb 23 aged 87.
Melvin enlisted into the KOYLI serving in 1KOYLI in Berlin.
Our thoughts and condolences at the sad time are with Melvin's daughter Wendy and all family members
As the bugle sounds 'No More Parades' and you take your place in the FRV,
your duty done with honour and distinction.
Rest in Peace Melvin.
