Ron Martin, a Kent Auxilier, has spoken out today about his time in the Auxiliary Units. He hopes that it will encourage other Auxiliers to come forward and share their knowledge.

CART researcher Phil Evans has been a friend of Ron’s for a long time and asked him if he would kindly help with our work and talk to the press.

CART organised a members trip to The Garth earlier this year and Ron popped along to chat to us. A truly humbling day for us all.

Thanks Ron for ‘doing ya bit.’
