Re: Wootton Bassett - a tribute


I read it on the BBC's site today, the people of Wootton Bassett have turned out on the streets over 100 times to pay their respects as coffins of service personnel war dead passed through their streets from RAF Lyneham.

So much sorrow on their streets for the people of Wootton Bassett ......

Thanks for posting those links Kazz and Mags. I had an aunt and uncle who lived in Wootton Bassett and spent most of my childhood holidays there with my parents.

Seen it on news this morning. |What a wonderful tribute. More towns should do things like that. I don't think people appreciate the work these guys do to keep us in a free world.
