With regret I write to notify you of the recent death, of a First Guards' Club member.

Captain Albert (Stan) Holloway died on 20 September, aged 87. Stan joined the Regiment in May 1951 and in later years was RSM of Old College before returning to the 1st Battalion in Chelsea as RSM, under the then Lt Colonel Bernard Gordon Lennox. He also served as RSM under Bernard's successor, David Gordon Lennox, in Kenya and then Pirbright. Stan was commissioned in May 1976 and subsequently spent 6 years in various appointments at the Guards Depot before retiring in May 1982.
