A PLYMOUTH artist known for his mural of fellow veteran Mark Ormrod has created a Christmas T-shirt to be sold in aid of Help for Heroes.
Former soldier Kevin Preston, 59, who served in the 1st Battalion Coldstream Guards, has created a design titled ‘Seasoned Greetings’.
It features characters called Squadron Leader Salt, in an RAF uniform; Petty Officer Pepper, wearing Royal Navy apparel; and Major Mustard, an Army officer. The design is available on a T-shirt, for £25, or a mug, for £6.
Kevin said: “When I was in the Army, we’d put on shows and dress up in ridiculous costumes, like a bottle of salt, for example.
“Those memories have stuck with me. Originally, I just had the salt and pepper but thought: ‘I need to make it tri-services’.
