Charles Reed

On 17 October 2009, retired Gunnery Sergeant Charles Reed passed away after a long, brave fight with cancer.  "Gums" was a member of 3/26 starting with India Company on Hill 881S in early 1968 and remaining until the battalion was deactivated in 1970. He is survived by his wife Roisin and two sons Jim and Andrew. Gums will be missed by all who knew him.
