Peter Lingard

When a youngster, Peter Lingard told his mother many fantastic tales of intrepid adventures enjoyed by he and his friends. She always said, ‘Go tell it to the Marines’. When he asked why, she said, ‘They’ve been everywhere and done everything, so they’ll want to hear about what you’ve been up to’.

Of course, Peter joined the Marines as soon as he was old enough and now has a seemingly inexhaustible supply of tales to tell.
