I remember a soft spoken gentleman but he had a look in his eyes even as an old man he had an air about him. We we are a do and every one in the room showed him absolute reverence. The funny thing was a much younger very very senior officer went to pieces when he was introduced to him and Saluted like he was a raw recruit. Amazing man.

Amongst military men a VC receipitant is held in the highest esteem because they understand this is probably the highest gallantary honour in the world and a double VC is off the scale.

If I live to be 150 I know I will never again meet anyone like Charles Upham.

As far as I go back - No famous people in my family.

My Aunt was a page 3 model in the 80's and shagged a City player though :D
That's about it.

I have to ask..... which one, mate?
