He was one of the British Services representatives who toured America. Mr. H. Morgenthau, in a special message of condolence to Huntly's parents, said: "We at the Treasury are deeply sorry to hear of his death. He was a great help to us during his visit to the United States, and he at all times was a credit to the uniform he wore. I feel he gave his life not only for his country but for ours in the fight against the common enemy." On Plumtree School Roll of Honour |
