A statement from the Royal Anglian Regiment;
Today the Regiment solemnly bid farewell to Sergeant Matthew Slater as he was laid to rest by his family and fellow soldiers. An operationally experienced Viking who served with the 1st Battalion continuously for 16 years, he will be long-remembered and deeply missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends and the wider Regimental community. Sgt Slater served numerous tours of Afghanistan under the command of the Sniper Platoon and was highly thought of throughout the battalion.
