Walter Tull and thousands of others like him went off to fight in two world wars, in the certain knowledge that many of them would die. Their best form of defence was their best mate copping the bullet instead of them. Many went knowing that war is futile, as both wars ultimately were, they went because they were told it was the right thing to do at the time.

What would they think of our generation, remembering them at Cenotaphs socially distanced and in a one way system. Retreating to take shelter in our homes or crossing the street to keep away from our neighbours, hiding behind our face nappies.
Is that what they fought for? They would probably say ' Man up and get on with your lives'.

Sorry to be a misery.
