Royal Marine Commando Adam Robert Brown was born in Yateley, Hampshire on the 25 February 1985. On the 1 August 2010 he was tragically killed whilst serving in Afghanistan.

One of Adam's dreams was to own a beach hut at Mudeford in Dorset where he spent many a childhood holiday with his family. The link to Mudeford has been going on through Adam's family for generations and the memories are very special to them all. Upon returning from previous tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan he would use a beach hut for some much needed rest and recuperation. In his words it is a very special place. So special that he even proposed to his wife Amy there.
