Losing so much history... only one Battle of Britain pilot left...

I shall have a pint for you tonite, sir! To your long continued life and the service you rendered humanity!

I deepest respect,

DEFINITELY calls for raising a few toasts. Thank you for bringing this to my/our attention. I have now 'put an iron into the fire' and let's see what comes of it.

Respects....

Smoke and prayers to the hard men who stood in WW II. So many battles on beaches, islands and woods.

A toast to them all who sacrificed more than we will ever know.
