He died in a daring pre-dawn operation on Wednesday to rescue Stephen Farrell, a reporter with the New York Times. Mr Farrell, who holds dual British and Irish citizenship, was successfully released during the raid but his Afghan interpreter Sultan Munadi also died. Cpl Harrison's family said: "We are absolutely heartbroken. "John was a wonderful son, brother and a dedicated soldier who was greatly loved and cherished by all his family and friends." His commanding officer, whose name was not released by the Ministry of Defence due to the special forces role of the unit, described him as "a tower of strength" and "a remarkable man". He said: "Cpl John Harrison was an immensely capable, self- effacing and highly likeable soldier with an irrepressible humour. "His hallmark was an undemonstrative, yet profound, professionalism; he cared deeply about his work, and more deeply still about those he commanded and served alongside. "He was an unflinching and inspirational man with a deep, deep pool of courage, who died as he lived - at the forefront of his men. "He gave his life for his comrades and the Parachute Regiment, both of which meant so much to him. "Although his passing is a sad day for us, every member of the unit counts themselves privileged to have known such a tower of strength and we all are deeply honoured to have served alongside him. "Our thoughts and prayers now turn to his family and friends at this most difficult time. "We hope that in the midst of their profound loss, they can draw strength from the fond memories that we all share of this remarkable man." Defence Secretary Bob Ainsworth said: "Cpl John Harrison put his life on the line to rescue others. "He made the ultimate sacrifice and acted heroically in the face of great danger, in the best tradition of the British Armed Forces and in full knowledge of the risks he faced. "My thoughts are with his family, friends and comrades at this difficult time." After the death was announced yesterday, Prime Minister Gordon Brown said Cpl Harrison had died "while acting with the greatest of courage in this most dangerous mission". Mr Brown added: "His bravery will not be forgotten." Windows Live: Make it easier for your friends to see what you’re up to on Facebook.
