It is with regret that the Ministry of Defence must confirm that Corporal Steven Thomas Dunn from 216 (Parachute) Signal Squadron, attached to 2nd Battalion the Parachute Regiment Battlegroup, was killed in Afghanistan on Tuesday, 21 December 2010.

Corporal Dunn deployed to Afghanistan on 19 September 2010 as part of 2nd Battalion the Parachute Regiment Battlegroup (2 PARA).He was based at Patrol Base 2, in the Nahr-e-Saraj district of Helmand Province.

On 21 December 2010 he was working with 2 PARA Patrols Platoon on a deliberate operation to interdict insurgents in the Bowri desert. He was travelling in a Jackal vehicle which hit an improvised explosive device at 1722 hours local time.

Corporal Steven Thomas Dunn

Corporal Dunn was born on 4 October 1983 in Gateshead where he grew up and attended Saint Joseph's School, Hebburn. On joining the Army in September 2004, he successfully completed Basic and Trade Training before serving with 216 (Parachute) Signal Squadron as a Communications System Operator. Following a brief spell at 2nd Signal Regiment, he returned to 216 and to the environment in which he felt most comfortable.

With a tour in Iraq and two previous tours of Afghanistan already under his belt, he relished the opportunity to deploy again on Op HERRICK 13. He thrived in the challenging role of providing communication support at battlegroup level and was in his element when deployed forward on the ground with his infantry counterparts. He led by example and was a rock to his Rear Link Detachment.

Corporal Dunn's future was bright and he was already earmarked as a man that would return to 216 (Parachute) Signal Squadron as he promoted through the ranks.

His passion for Newcastle United FC knew no bounds and his thirst and excitement for life was apparent in everything he did. Thoroughly dedicated to his family, his job and to those he served with, this potent blend won him the highest accolades and the respect of all.

He leaves behind his wife Cheryl and daughter Emily.

The Family of Corporal Dunn have made the following statement:

"Steven was a loving husband to Cheryl, son to Vicky, and doting dad to Emily. He has left a huge hole in the lives of those he has left behind including his brothers Christopher and Michael. He will also be sorely missed by Kevin, an important person in his life and all his aunts, uncles, cousins and many friends.

"He lived for the Army especially 216 Parachute (Signal) Squadron and worked hard to get his wings of which he was very proud, it was his first love after Cheryl and Newcastle United.

"We are all immensely proud of all that he achieved in his short life. He died doing a job he loved and excelled at."

Major Alistair Fawcett, Officer Commanding 216 (Parachute) Signal Squadron said:

"Corporal Steven Dunn died doing a job he loved while supporting 2 PARA Battle Group, a unit he had already served alongside on a previous Op HERRICK tour. 216 (Parachute) Signal Squadron was a richer place for his presence and he is missed deeply already.

"At every turn he strove to improve the lot of his men. He was always in the thick of it and his time in Afghanistan was no exception; with a spark in his eye and his devilish Geordie sense of humour, he tackled his work with a sense of purpose and in the pursuit of making a difference.

"His support of the 'Magpies' was equally potent - a good man to share a beer with and an excellent barometer of unit life.

"He will be sorely missed and he leaves a void that will be extremely challenging to fill. His untimely passing marks a black day in 216 (Parachute) Signal Squadron's proud history but he was not the timid type or one to shy away from the challenges that our profession presents.

"We have lost a gifted soldier and a son of the Squadron and, although this loss cuts extremely deep, we remember him with the utmost fondness, as the courageous and professional signaller he was.

"Our loss will be nothing compared to that of his family; at this extremely difficult time, the thoughts of the entire Squadron go to his new bride Cheryl, his young daughter Emily, and his family and close friends. Certa Cito."

I served with Tony as his TP OC in 3 Sqn 11 Sigs. Tony was a dedicated and professional NCO and it was an honour to serve with him, as will all who did will agree. A true gentleman.

We were both Cpls together at both Ouston, and 11 Sigs, and friends after I left the army in 1988. He, like most Corps members, had an interesting career.

He was Captain Mark Phillips driver/op while at Sandhurst.

He survived a hit and run incident while on Ex in Hildesheim where it was touch and go if he would live.

He also survived an accident while on duty at Ouston. While driving a Rover patrol round the airfield he managed to run into the only pile of sand in the camp!

He was also a patron [drinker] of the Scotton Club here in Catterick Garrison.

We lost touch, and I am very sorry for that, my thoughts to his family.

Derek died in October 2009 at Ross on Wye. I knew Derek through amateur radio, his callsign G3LCK. Derek served as an instructor at Loughborough in the 1950s during his National Service. Derek was very active in training radio amateurs in both theory and Morse for many years.

He was head of Science at Sir Simon Langton Boys School in Canterbury prior to his retirement.

Derek was my chemistry teacher at the Langton c.a 1980. I went onto read Chemistry at University, and remember fondly his maverick ways. He was a wonderful story teller, and brought science alive in the classroom. He was head and shoulders above any other teacher there, Thanks Derek RIP

Derek also taught me at Simon Langton. A truly great teacher. He helped me get my Chemistry 'O' level in 1976 by giving me some personal tuition. I remember it clearly as at one point I lost concentration and started watching the cricket through a window. Derek went ballistic, rightly so, he was giving up his time freely and I abused that. Thanks for teachers like Derek Bradford. RIP

Received from the late Peter Hardwick's wife Elizabeth on 8th November 2010 regarding the earlier obituary to her husband Peter which can be found here.

It has been brought to my attention that there is an [incomplete] obituary for my late husband Peter. As I know he would be very upset that the latter years of his life had been [missed] out; he would want me to put the record straight, as he was very proud and happy with his new family and second career.

My husband Peter joined the 244 Royal Signals Air Support in July 1958 and retired in July 1980 as a Regimental Quartermaster Sergeant. He often spoke of his time in Cyprus, Aden, Germany, Harrogate and Blandford. I didn't know Peter during his army years, but have heard stories of how frightened new recruits were of him, and his famous 'bark'; and how they later came to discover to their surprise, that he was a very decent, fair and honest man underneath the tough exterior.

Happily, after having left the army, whilst still a 'tough' man, his softer side was much more evident. I so wish he could read those stories now, he would be so amused!

Peter was in regular contact with his army friend Les Didlick until just before his death.

Upon leaving the army in 1980, he had a major car accident; resulting in multiple serious injuries, that permanently damaged his lungs and vocal chords (losing his famous 'bark').

Not only did he recover, but went on to become a police dog handler with the U.K.A.E.A in Dorset, a job he loved until he retired in 2004.

He had lung fibrosis for many years, but it did not stop him from working on his allotment and walking our assortment of dogs, (six in all). He loved living in Dorset, but we still enjoyed visiting his family together, at his old home in South Yorkshire.

He was a man with a very strong sense of duty and responsibility in his working and personal life. His first wife was a good deal older than Peter, yet he looked after her until her death in a rest home in 2005. She was 91 years old when she passed away.

He had been my partner since 1995, and as he and his first wife had no children, he took great pleasure in becoming "adopted step-dad" and "Grandad Peter" to my children and our subsequent four grandchildren.

We were finally able to marry in April 2005, and were hoping to have very many happy years together. Sadly he developed pneumonia, complicated by his lung fibrosis, and he died in hospital in May 2007, at just 66 years of age.

He is loved and missed every day, by his family and friends.

Dennis passed away around Nov 09.
I first met him in 21 Sig (AS) Regt in Wildenrath during January of 1981, he was the RHQ Ord Cpl. He became a very good and close friend of mine over the next 20 odd years.
I moved to the US and regret not knowing about or being able to help at that time.
