It is with great sadness that the Ministry of Defence must confirm that Rifleman Cyrus Thatcher from 2nd Battalion The Rifles was killed in Afghanistan on Tuesday 2 June 2009. Rifleman Thatcher died as a result of an explosion whilst he was on a patrol near Gereshk in Helmand province. Rifleman Thatcher, aged 19, joined 2nd Battalion The Rifles in December 2007 and deployed almost immediately to Salisbury Plain on a Battle Group exercise with 10 Platoon, C Company.

Hardly out of his egg, for God's sake. Rest easy son.
