Stories that deserve to be remembered and passed down.
I had an uncle who served in the 1914-18 War, he told a story of falling into a shell hole in no man's land along with a German and saying to him "I won't hurt you if you won't hurt me" and both making it back to their own lines. Smart lads.
He survived the war then worked 30 years in the coal mines, died of black lung disease & smoking. For all I could complain about it's memories like these that make me understand how fortunate I've been by comparison, thanks anyway to the NHS and a good grammar school.
