"There was an incendiary bomb and I went out with my father to where it had fallen, a couple of streets away. I had to go up into the loft with a bucket of water and a stirrup-pump to put it out. When I came back down the stairs, though, they gave way completely and I fell and hurt my leg."

This we remember the sacrifices of 101 year old Burma Star veteran George Durrant and his colleagues. 🎖💂‍♂️

George and his family were at the National Memorial Arboretum last Friday where he delivered a reading alongside his great granddaughter. You can read his story here. 👇
