We're deeply saddened to hear about the passing of John Cruickshank. John was one of the original 6 Scouts, when they had a vision of starting a troop at Greenbank back in 1933. As well as being one of our local heroes, he's also a national hero. He was the last surviving WWII recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest medal for valour. Rest in Peace, John. As the Scouts say - you've Gone Home. ⚜️

John Cruickshank suffered 72 injuries during the bombing raid on a U-boat in 1944 but refused medical treatment.
