    Much respect to the players and club.
    Also understand that each child in the town takes on a soldiers grave and tends it until they leave school, then pass it on to a new child to look after.

    Absolutely fantastic. I posted some Market Garden stuff on the "On this day" thread. These old warriors should all be treated like the true heroes they are.....I've had the pleasure of meeting a lot of Arnhem veterans through the years, brave and courageous doesn't even come close to describing their actions during that battle, facing a formidible enemy who still thought they were in with a chance of winning the war so threw everything they had at them.
