Leaving army
There are contradictory details about when and how he left the army. Under 'Early life' it says 'his commission was terminated in 1988', which choice of words seems to suggest he was forcibly thrown out of the army for some misdemeanor or made reduncant (it was the 90s not the 80s that saw officers and soldiers being made redundant). Quite rightly I think a 'clarification needed' is put against the statement. However, under 'Rugby career' it states he resigned from the army - therefore inferring he decided to leave - in 1987.Cloptonson (talk) 12:03, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
