Corporal Wilde’s bravery and commitment to her duty have not gone unnoticed by her comrades and colleagues. Her commanding officer, Colonel James Smith, described her as a “remarkable soldier” and a “natural leader” who inspired those around her.
Her colleagues remember her as a kind and compassionate person who always put others before herself. Corporal Wilde’s close friend, Sergeant Emma Jones, said, “Lucy was more than just a colleague; she was my friend. She was always there for me and had a heart of gold. She will be deeply missed by everyone who knew her.”
