Awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for service on the Atlantic convoys. Was working in a food bank at the age 100 and best of all, his daughter says that she can’t recall him ever losing his temper.
Bless him. We’ve lost a good one.
Apparently he served on the Arctic convoys (you ended up in that water and you were dead in short order) so a genuine hero then.
My mum’s friend died aged 102 the other day. She worked on the decoding of German messages during WW2. Had all her marbles right up until the end. Was a mercy tbh, she was very sick.
Bless all the people that helped to keep this and other countries safe.
