Just had a chat with Pusser (Mark) Hill who informed me that Buster had passed away. He had been ill with Alzheimers for some time. Pusser went to school with him in Coventry. I had many a good run with him on the Fez trip 74-75 and I last saw him when he made it over from Gosport to my 40th birthday party extravaganza. I had hoped to meet up again but it never came about sadly.
He is standing behind me with the Indian headdress on in my Xmas 1974 photo in Sembewang. In that famous photo he has his old chap on my shoulder, unbeknown to me and forever after earned the nickname 'Dick on the shoulder Brown' to distinguish him from all the other Busters, but there was really only one Buster. Great oppo.
