Well said Kev, as usual the voice of reason.

I remember returning from ops down south, to find the wife had packed all my favourite paperbacks and directed me to take them to nearby RNAY Wroughton.

We arrived, very welcome, to take these books to one of the many Wards of the survivors of Sir Galahad & Sir Tristram. We too were humbled by their comradeship and upbeat mentality.

After that, each conflict was seen in a different perspective although the pain of loss still hurts as deep. I hope the present conflict will bring just rewards to compensate for the immense suffering these boys and girls are enduring. My heart goes out to them.
