Colonel Charlie Sloan, chairman of The Gordon Highlanders Regimental Trust, paid tribute to Sir Peter, who was his first commanding officer.

“All of us who served under him will remember the standards he set, both for us and himself,” he said.

“He made us proud to be Gordon Highlanders and the self respect that engendered was the engine for our excellence.

“It wasn’t by accident that we were one of the best regiments in the Army – it was because of Gordon Highlanders like Peter Graham.

“He was determined to ensure the Gordon Highlanders were not forgotten.”

A memorial service in St Machar’s Cathedral in Aberdeen is expected to be held at a later date.
