Sorry for such a delay - life got busy.
I have no idea whether these guys are alive or not - I know that when he left the army, John and Vera went to Hong Kong and my dad thinks they may have adopted a child or two from Singapore.

My mum recently passed away and my Dad would love to know whether this couple are in fact still alive.

Thanks

Oh my gosh, thank you do much.  Yes that's my grandad, though they have misspelt his name.  I will print the article for my dad, he will be stoked.

I will try the other link tomorrow from work as I cannot open on my old laptop.

Thanks to both of you - you've made by day :-)

Thanks for all the replies.  He name is John Alfred Stupples - something to do with driving a bus during the old bailey bomb in 1973 - he received the MBE for bravery. :-)

Hi all

My grandfather apparently received an MBE in 1973 for bravery in relation to Old Bailey Bomb.  I never knew!  How would I go about finding an article of this.  I have tried google.

Thanks
Lynnette
