Who'd have thought that this feeble looking old man in "Dads Army" had fought hand to hand on the Somme. Much too often people look at the older generations as silly old gits etc etc but they too had youth and a past that is quite often never spoken about or they chose to forget for reasons quite obvious to themselves. What they did in those hellish years now long since passed has permitted the current generations to live in the conditions to which we've all become acustomed.
