Army Benevolent Fund statement on the death of General Sir Mike Jackson

The Army Benevolent Fund is saddened to hear of the death of General Sir Mike Jackson GCB, CBE, DSO, who served the Army and its national charity with such distinction.

Tim Hyams, Chief Executive of the Army Benevolent Fund, said:

“General Mike combined strategic vision, a genuine grasp of the operational art, and the ability to make all ranks feel at home in his company. He cared deeply for his soldiers; as they did for him. His profoundly important contribution to the ABF, as its President, was an extension of his lifetime of dedicated service to the Army and its people. Our thoughts and prayers are with Lady Sarah and the family at this most difficult of times.”
