I have just finished reading your article on the local people who were awarded the Victoria Cross and what they did to be awarded such an honour.
It made me very proud of them and to think that those ordinary men with ordinary lives could act like that in extreme situations.
I also read, on a regular basis, of the ever increasing actions of the thugs, thieves, drug pushers, wife beaters and general perverts in our local area and I just hope these people read this article and it may embarrass them into acting in more heroic ways. Or am I just being naïve?
