A GRASSINGTON mother is celebrating after hearing news that her son is set to receive an MBE in recognition for services in Iraq.
Diane and David Rasche, of Hebden Road, are proud that Major Mark Robinson, has been included among a list of military honours announced on Friday. Major Robinson, of the Duke of Wellington Regiment, went to Iraq on a special attachment and found himself working 20 hours a day.
He will be returning to the country later in the year as a company commander.
