    Every night I watch the news and see the bodies being flown home from Afghanistan followed by the funeral procession of our fallen soldiers and it still makes me shed a tear but also fills me with immense pride. God bless them and their families. RIP to our fallen heroes.

    Sorry for the morbid post.

    That lass on the news last night who'd lost her husband and a baby to look after - astounded at how she was so strong and dignified whilst they interviewed her as she waited for his body to be brought back.</p>

    They ought to make Blair, Brown and the rest attend every homecoming.

    I agree Dirk. The strength that girl showed was unbelievable and really puts the way we over-react to results and such into some perspective. I thought she was amazing.
