June’s meeting features the return of Major Tom Mouat MBE. Tom is a graduate of the Army Staff college and has served in the Army since 1977. He spent 12 months in Bosnia with IFOR, for which he was awarded the MBE. On his last visit he spoke about his experiences during his deployment. This time he will be talking about his time spent in Iraq following the fall of Saddam Hussein, where he was involved in training the new Iraqi forces. This will be a unique experience to hear the inside story of “The War on Terror”.
