WW1: The Ultimate Sacrifice

The Ultimate Sacrifice

Discovering that you have people connected to you through bloodlines or through marriage that have given their life in the defense of Britain and its Commonweath is very humbling.

Knowing relatives of yours have lost their lives on foriegn fields does make you stop and think about the futility of armed conflict and how easy it is for people with differing opinions to go to war. And how making absolute decisions about your own life and the lives of others dear to you is never really in your own grasp.

I hope I have done justice to these people - all of whom gave their lives in World War One, none of whom I ever knew, all of whom I owe a debt of gratitude to that can never be repaid.
