"Thank You" never seems to be enough for all the sacrifices and bravery you and your family, as well as all the other soldiers, have done for us. xoxo

Wow, your family has an incredible record of service to be proud of, Rel.

Where would we be without our service men and women? They deserve to be honoured.

Thrilled to read this,

My grandfather WW1 and my father WW11, in the Norwegian Campaign and later with Montgomery at El Alamein. Later in Malaya, Aden and even later against insurgents in Dhofar rebellion. He could tell a tale or two.
