Educated at St Edmund's School in Canterbury and the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst,[1] Strudwick was commissioned into the Royal Scots in 1966.[2] He was twice mentioned in despatches for his service in Northern Ireland.[3][4]

He was appointed Commanding Officer of 1st Bn the Royal Scots in 1984 and then became an instructor at the Staff College, Camberley, in 1987.[5] In 1990, Strudwick was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire,[6] and later that same year was appointed Commander of 3rd Infantry Brigade. In 1992, Strudwick was appointed to the office of the Deputy Military Secretary at the Ministry of Defence.[5]

He was made Director of Infantry in 1996 and then General Officer Commanding Scotland in 1997; in that role he was simultaneously Governor of Edinburgh Castle.[5] He retired in 2000.[7]

He was also Aide-de-Camp to the Queen.[8]

From 2000 to 2012, he was Chief Executive of the Prince's Scottish Youth Business Trust.[7] He was Chairman of Trustees of the Royal Scots Club Edinburgh.[9]

In 1970, Strudwick married Janet Elizabeth Coleridge Vivers; they went on to have one son and one daughter, all of whom survived him.[1][10]

Strudwick died on 26 September 2021, at the age of 76.[10]
