My brother and my father are both veteran's. Thinking of them and other people who have served in the military. Their service has kept us safe. I am thankful.
We owe them so much. It was a beautiful frosty but sunny morning for the remembrance service in London. My son Guy went to Belgium on the 'Battlefields' trip with his school, a few years ago. What they saw had a huge effect on them all. I'm glad each new generation is being taught how awful it was and how precious our freedoms are. Those who survived the Great War are not around any more to tell the tale. I'm glad your father and brother made it home again from their service. Respect to them both. *hugs* xx
