Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn? Remember how she said that we would meet again, some sunny day. Vera! Vera! What has become of you? Does anybody else in here feel the way I do?
I was born after the war. Somehow I like songs that helped our troops morale. I wish I could appreciate the same music today instead of all that screaming.
"There'll be peace ever after" sad that after over half a century later we still do not have peace and there is still conflict. After all the bloodshed of the first and Second World War, husbands and sons and fathers who never came home and we are still fighting. When will they learn.
" The children will not leave unless I do. I shall not leave unless their father does, and the King will not leave.... " This is a quote from history that will live in British hearts for a thousand years. QE II's mum
Vera Lynn Welch, i still love you, for the joye you did bring to our Allied forces to liberate Europe from the terrible Agressor who killed many innocent lives. Thank you for that, because, without the Allied, i maybe would not be born. I pay my respect to those who gave their lives, to freedom my family and others., but also you, YOU were the drive into many hearts to bring these young and old soldiers to fight for anothers freedom, without recontribution. I love you still, and many others do !
It boggles the mind...........We faced and defeated two of the most powerful military's on earth, (Germany-Japan), in only 6 years!..................Now we have a pack of Jihadis running circles around us for more than 10 years! It makes me sick!
As a teenager I wondered why my dad would shed a tear when he saw this lady. 50 years hence I share his sentiments and realise just how much Miss Lynn must have boosted the troops morale.
