My father was in the RAF; my sister still is, and returned safely from a tour in Basra last year. Like Bob's son, they all go willingly for us: remembering, and reminding the rest of us to remember, is the least I can do. It is too easy to forget that these names in the newspaper are real people, with real families and real lives. Hence, 'Poppies'. Bob, thank you for writing.
