Today in Great Britain we pay our respects to the countless people who have lost they're lives in the conflicts of the last century. We buy poppies and wear them on our jackets and such, and tomorrow there should be a special service broadcast live to the nation, the queen and guards and everything. It's a pretty special weekend.
Few weeks ago a tin box was found in a hedge near by, some doctor found it and it contained some war medals. It turns out the burglar took all the valuables and threw the worthless stuff into the hedge with the empty wallet.. sadly the owner hasn't be traced yet but there are alot of people trying they're best to get the medals back to the person or family of the soldier who is still yet unknown. How could anyone think war medals are worthless.. its beyond belief.
So for those out there serving, or have served in the past a big ole salut and to let you know, your in our thoughts.
