WO1 GS (Sam) Kennard,retired- Royal Signals. Silent Key--Sam passed away yesterday,16 Aug 2011, in England from an aneurism. He was an avid ham radio operator,G4OHX, and operated his station from many different locations around the world. During the visit of Princess Anne at our 100th Anniversary we had Sam operating VE3RCS when she visited the Museum. He was a great supporter of the Signallers Club and unofficially acted as our liaison in the UK. He served his country with the Royal Signals and retired as the RSM of the British Signals Airborne Regt. One of my great thrills was to contact him "on-air" by phone and CW (he sure had to slow down for me to copy)
Terry, VA3TRM
