LaraCroft 863 Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 A lovely link, thank you Blackbriar. We lost a lovely military guy not long ago - a few years after his return with injury - we, and him, worked so hard to get him back, but it wasn't to be, and it was gutting. To have come so far, from injury, to flight home, rehab, and physio and then die anyway was a harsh lesson. Knowing that some people don't even know what the silence means is shocking. Not to mention that they don't care. They should try sitting there for months at a time with a loved one abroad fighting, and live in fear of the knock on the door and perhaps learn a few things. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
