Well, please pass on my gratitude to your father for his service and sacrifice. I have been fortunate enough over the years to be able to meet a few veterans and have been both amazed and humbled by these gentlemen and their stories.
My circle of friends are all in their late 20's - mid 30's, and apart from the serving soldiers, aren't interested in military history. They are all, however, very conscious of the sacrifices made that enable our generation to live and bring up families in a free United Kingdom.
While i can only speak for myself, i am pretty sure i speak for them as well when i say that thankyou is far too small a word.
Ted
