A friend wrote: Sgt Micky Chadwick, “The Chadmeister General” or however else he was known to you was a legend. One of the nicest and most genuine people that you could meet, Chad quickly made a massive impact on the lives of those he served with. Chad unfortunately passed away of natural causes in January this year after returning from his second tour of Afghanistan. Although only known to us for a short period of time, it is fair to say that he will be remembered forever.
