Spiral, Vandoo.....I'm with you....if the facts are correct ..this is indeed SHAMEFUL.
Surely, and I do not mean this disrespectfully, one VC looks much the same to another, WHAT IS DIFFERENT IS THE ENGRAVED NAME AND THE BRAVERY WHICH PLACED IT THERE.
This man is old, in poor health and lives in poverty....is there no compassion left...to let this man have honour in his final days....surely the right of any brave warrior.....
