Stretton War Memorial

I always feel immensely proud when I see a war memorial.
My dad was in the Royal Navy in WW2
He served on many ships and two he was on were torpedoed and sunk with a massive loss of life then he was on the Arctic Convoys and that was supposed to have been one of the toughest assignments the Navy undertook in the war.
He was a very brave man and won quite a few medals but he was very humble about his part in the war.
I was lucky he came back home and I had his love and guidance for the first 23 years of my life before he died suddenly
At least he came home unlike so many brave men
RESPECT to all servicemen......
I miss my dad daily even though he has been gone now for 42 years :(
