  • LEST WE FORGET

    In memory of Captain Philip Mann.
    who was killed in action, Dhofar Oman April 1975.
    Campaign Service Medal clasps Northern Ireland, Dhofar EII. Sultan of Oman's Bravery Award (Awarded Posthumously). Oman Dhofar Campaign medal Clasp Dhofar in Arabic. Oman Victory Medal.

    RIP.

    This was one of the 'little wars' in which British
    servicemen have been engaged for centuries - most of
    them, as this was, near the shores of the Indian
    Ocean - and it was a model of its kind....Only those
    who have been to Dhofar can fully appreciate the
    severity of the conditions in which the polyglot
    force fought and flew; at times extreme heat; at
    others cold, wet, permanent cloud; and rugged
    terrain, the equal of which it would be hard to find
    anywhere....Those who fought there, including those
    who were wounded or died, did not fight in vain.
    Michael Carver
    Field Marshal
