Dear all, Please click onto the link and join the petition, if you agree. petitions.number10.gov.uk/lasttommyfuneral The link will explain all but the gist of it is that the Last Surviving "Tommy" from WW1 is given a State Funeral at West Minster Abbey. Most probably being laid to rest next to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Last Remembrance Sunday the last 3 remaining Vets of WW1 paraded at the Cenotaph in London as of last week there are now only 2 Vets left. If you agree just follow the link it will explain all. Cheers. |

Has anyone actually asked these veterans if they mind?
