About the memorial: WO1 Regimental Sergeant Major Reginald Tayler SRN MBE 1938-2004 "Sister Reg" as he was affectionately known was responsible for training the SAS's Patrol Medics to a very high standard in Bradbury Lines, Hereford as well as taking part in many operational tours in the Radfan mountains of Aden 1966 to the secret war in Dhofar, Sultanate of Oman 1970-76. He devised ways of making vital things simple to remember when faced with a real casualty. He taught SAS Medics to think of 'ABC' Airway, Breathing and Circulation. This simple aide-memoir has been universally adopted and is now in use all over the world to help save lives in First Aid Emergencies. This memorial was kindly donated by Peter Amor and the regulars of the Barrels Public House in Hereford. The Scots Pine tree growing well over the memorial was donated by his friends in Hereford.
