Pvt. Richard Hunt was the 200th U.K. soldier to die in the Afghanistan conflict after his patrol from A Company the 2nd Battalion the Royal Welsh was hit by an explosive device. At a memorial service held in Abergavenny, Wales his family, friends and comrade’s in arms came together to remember the young man who would have been celebrating his birthday.
Among all the tribute left the most touching had to be from his father Phillip, who apparently enjoyed a good game of Call of Duty with his fallen son. There among all the flowers an cards was a copy of the game with the following note attached:
Happy Birthday ‘Hunty’. Play you again one day. Dad.
