Lovely to hear from you Irish! What a lovely thing that lady did. It's the little things that make you realise this world isn't as bad as you think.

Like a lot of today's troops you had the misfortune to be putting your life on the line for a very unpopular war, which means you often don't get credit for the sacrifices you made. I always think it's horribly unfair on the men on the front line who are doing what they're employed to do for the country that they love with very few choices open to them.

I think anyone who does a job I wouldn't want to do (i.e. someone in the forces, the medical profession, working with the elderly etc) is a hero.
