Sir Corporal Mackey-Packey
Sir Mackey-Packey lived for 65 honorable years and has

been forgotten by the lives of many whom he saved. He

lived from 1934 to 1999 and was dubbed ‘Soldier of the

century’ for many years and is still sometimes called that today. He was born

on 29th April 1934 in Edinborough, Scotland but soon moved to London as an

orphan. When he was only 13, Sir Mackey-Packey managed to escape his

orphanage and hijaked a boat to Africa.(This is where he gained his amazing

accent!)

He gained around £100 in Egypt by doing orders around the country. With this

money, when he was 16, he bought a boat and the long journey back to England.

He was young, but smart: he knew exactly what to pack on the trip, how to

survive when he got there and where to arrive so he was not mistaken for an

enemy shop.

The First World War had started and England was involved. When he arrived

in the South port, he decided to  join the army. From then on, he advanced to

Corporal and saved 300 lives.

his favourite quote was ‘Don’t wait for the perfect moment, take the moment

and make it perfect.’ Therefore he shall never be forgotten
