Harry Patch, aged 113 years at his death last week was buried today in Well's Cathederal in Somerset, England.
''Harry who?'' I hear you saying....
Harry was the last man in the whole world who actually served and fought in the trench's on the Western Front in the 1914 - 18 war.
Now our last living link with that horrendous conflict, ''The War to end all Wars''.. has gone to be with the rest of all those those boys....of all sides....who went and did what their countries asked and demanded of them.
God bless him and every body else who has fallen in every war, and those who are still putting their lives on the line today for our safety and freedom.
Safe shooting,
Limey
