CROWDS lined the streets of Wootton Basset this afternoon to pay their respects to fallen Reading army hero Coporal Richard Green.

Richard's mother Eileen wept as the body of the 23-year-old from Tilehurst was returned to the UK and brought through the Wiltshire town along with four commrades killed in Afghanistan.
