Until this week, Corporal Adair lay in an unmarked grave.

Thanks to MOD War Detectives research, his name has now been added to his headstone in South Korea. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ πŸ‡°πŸ‡·

The Royal Ulster Rifles soldier was among 1,000+ British troops who died fighting for freedom in the Korean War.

Got stopped today by a Moscow traffic policeman. Our conversation:
"When did you last have a drink?"
"I haven't had a drink."
[Policeman sticks head into car & sniffs.]
"Is that your eau de cologne I can smell?"
"I haven't put on any eau de cologne."
"No drink? And no eau de cologne?! Drive on."
