Spot on mate👌🏻. I’m also remembering 80 years since my Polish Grandad fought at Monte Cassino as well 🏴🏴🏴🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱👊🏻 Lest we forget 🏴

When you listen to these words how would you liked to have been there? Not me you can tell them but these blokes were there and there are not many left so stand up for these guys and there fallen friends for as long as you can.

Watching the D Day commemorations on gold beach this morning was so moving. I don't think we can ever thank them men and women enough for their sacrifice & @yorkshireprose is right in his words, when the last of the veterans have gone we should never forget #proud @britishlegion

Nicely put as always shipmate 🫡🙏

Put brilliantly as always. Thanks to you and everyone else in the armed services still keeping us safe.

I’m also remembering my grandads . Arthur who was gassed on the Somme WW1 who did return to these shores but died of the effects in his 30’s and also Thomas who was killed in the Hull blitz when their house on Walcott street was bombed , Never to be forgotten ❤️

Brilliant 👏

Brilliant poem . And those last few sentences sum up everything .
