We regret to announce that Peter Walls, former Rhodesian Commander of Combined Operations, died of a heart attack on the 20th July 2010 in George, South Africa.

Our sincere condolences to his family and friends.

They shall grow not old
As we that are left grow old,

Age shall not weary them

Nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun,

And in the morning,

We will remember them.

We will remember them
