A TA soldier who died alongside a colleague during an assessment to become an SAS reservist on the hottest day of the year was pursuing his dream, his family have said.
Lance Corporal Craig Roberts and another soldier who has not been named died during a military exercise in the Brecon Beacons on Saturday.
A third soldier was also rushed to hospital needing treatment as temperatures soared to 29.5C (85.1F).
In a statement issued through the Ministry of Defence, Mr Roberts's father Kelvin said: "We are all devastated at the loss of our beloved Craig; this has left a massive hole in all our lives."
Mr Roberts said his son, who was due to start a new job in the Education Secretary's office, died pursuing his dream.
"We wholeheartedly supported Craig in his military endeavours and it gives us some comfort, though great sadness, that he died in the pursuit of his dream," he said.
"Next month Craig was due to start a new post in the office of the Secretary of State for Education and we were all very proud of him."
