debris4spike | London Trip #4

Well this is the last lot until next week .... honest.

For years, while I lived in Essex, I used to go and meet up with friends at The Field of Remembrance. Mum came with me a couple of times. The 2 I used to meet were veterans from WWII who were in the same regiment as one of my Grandfather's and we met the first year I was at college. Between Novembers we used to write to each other. One, Ted had actually landed on D-Day itsefl, whereas Len landed on D-Day +2. The last year I met up with them (about 4 years before they both died) I was so honoured as Ted gave me the Sweetheart brooch that he had given to his wife at the time.
