She performed her war service in the ATS, mainly at Castle Donnington Camp in Nottinghamshire, then also rising to the rank of Corporal.

  • @fritzfromsouth5935
    @fritzfromsouth5935 3 года назад +1111

    This song has always touched me deeply, about 10 years ago I met a girl of Japanese descent on school, she was always very lonely, she never spoke to anyone and almost always did not participate in school groups, I took the courage to talk to her, and she told me that was never one to talk to a lot of people and she suffered a lot of pressure from her parents, since then I've been more present in her life, had lunch together, talked and I always included her in my groups if possible, despite some discussions ( like all good friendships), I always liked her shy way, when she face some problem, and wanted my help, instead of touching my shoulder or calling my name, she would look at me for a very long time until I notice her, our friendship was always the reason she never wanted to change school, the same with me, we cared about each other, but... When we went to college, like any relationship, we started to distance ourselves, she got her own group of friends, and so did I, we followed our lives naturally... It's been about 5 years since I've seen her, i miss her so much, it reminded me of the time I told her when i was little, that we would always be friends, even if i never see her again, I'm glad I caused an impact on her life, and she on mine... I hope we can meet again, someday.

      @@grugamersriseup7299 Honestly from my experience I'd say tea but it definetly differentiates from person to person & coffee is still incredibly popular amongst people, but tea for example is usually what is more easily accessible to people, especially younger generations. For example, not sure how it is usually but you often wouldn't see children drinking coffee but it wouldn't be that surprising to see a child drinking tea -- or in the UK, usually the classic black tea with milk.

    This song... captures the "stiff upper lip" mentality of the British, in a song of very clear fear, of people leaving home, knowing they might not come back, but absolutely resolute in steadfast refusal to despair. As hauntingly sad as it is that the need for such a song came about, I think it's something Britain should be proud of.

    This song really makes me tear up. At the beginning of the school year I made a wonderful friend and she was always happy and would brighten my days. I'd look forward to seeing her in class and she was also my wing woman. When I got friendzoned by my crush she was there to help me when I was down and she cured my sadness. She has a boyfriend and they have an amazing relationship and I started to notice that I should back off from face timing and texting her because I would hate to get attached to a girl that's in a relationship. I would never want to affect a relationship especially when it's been going on for a while now. She's been a great friend and is switching out of my class because the teacher is too harsh on her. As long as she's happy right? There's an odd sadness I have that I won't see her next semester but it's for the better. So this song is what I dedicate to her. For me to take my distance away from her and her leaving my class. Sometimes good people will come into your life just to teach you how to let go. Farewell to the girl I couldn't love.

    My great grandfather fought in ww2 as a squadron leader in the RAF. He got captured and made friends with a captain from Australia. They escaped together got caught again and as a punishment they released German Shepherds after the Australian captain. In the words he quoted " Run. Run and don't look back. " My great grandfather was forced to watch it happen. He watched his mate of 2 years get torn to shreds by dogs. He didn't sleep properly for around a year and was often found screaming up against a wall when remembering the sighting. I often think about that and the Captains family and if they found out what happened to him as he was only in his early 20's. May he rest in peace.
    My great grandfather would never speak about this. He only said it once. When he was trapped in Greece any soldier's who they could not help they would lay underneath the olive Garden trees and let the planes bomb over the gardens. ( With their knowledge of what was about to happen of course. )
    He hid his gun and coat from the enemy under an olive tree. They probably have been found but it would be a treasure to find them.
    May everyone who died for us Rest In Peace.
    And everyone who came back without their friends and family members along side them find peace.

Even now in these controversial times, first with the uncertainly around populist resurgence and now bearing a great bulk of the virus, Anglophone citizens can still extend arms of comfort to those who may be afraid in any realm where our brethren feel threatened by governmental delays.

    A very young Queen Elizabeth rolled up her sleeves to become a mechanic repairing truck motors. The war ravaged her country yet she fearlessly worked alongside her people giving them hope to never give up. For that, she is a great Queen. God bless Queen Elizabeth Regina of the House of Windsor.

    My great grandad, despite being American, thought quite highly of the British when he was in Burma with the 2nd Infantry, and looked upon them as his own family rather than complete strangers. I never got to met the man, but I bet he was great. Funnily enough, he died a few days after the Chicago White Sox won the 2005 World Series almost as if that was his dying wish.
    I hope this friendship between us shall last forever, whether it be during peace or war, my friends across the pond, we’ll meet again. Someday, someday.
    *In loving memory of Walter Carlson Sr. (1921-2005)*

    Queen Elizabeth died today and this could’ve been her funeral song. RIP.

    Fun fact: this music was played in a French tv show of WW2 called the Long Long holiday, but only for a few seconds or a few lines.
