Lest we forget: VJ Day.
« on: 15 August 2009, 01:16:52 PM »
As we move our little pieces of lead and plastic around model battlefields take a moment to think on today.

Just back from the memorial in town, so few people turn up and so few left to hold the flag.

Remember this:

When you go home, tell them of us and say, for your tomorrow, we gave our today.


God bless.

The Commander

It's been renamed VP day by the do-gooders.
