It was quite touching yesterday to see 2 of the remaining 3 war veterans who fought in the great war meet the Queen, one being 111, the other was 106. Their message was simple "We want people to know how much we owe them. They gave everything."
We all know that thousands upon thousands gave up their life in the great war, the flower of Britains youth back then went to certain death in the trenches, men who had more morals from a time when people were more civil.
The veterans through longevity of life must have seem an enormous amout of changes in science and society but I wonder what they really think of our country today?
