Whilst googling for more information for my blog this morning I came across this obituary:
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/obituaries/article4294953.ece

Vice-Admiral Sir Anthony Troup KCB,DCS and bar had been one of Linton's protégées.I had met him for lunch last month to discuss the loss of Linton and HMS Turbulent.I feel deeply honoured to have met him and I just wish I could have asked him so many more questions.

There is never enough time to ask all the questions that you want to ask.:cry:
