Lest we forget

Conflict is always with us somewhere and in these
days of further conflict it is right to remember the
sacrifice made in WW1 and WW2 for the freedoms
 we enjoy
 
 
Everyday scenes in the 1940's

 
Yes the kids did find it all a bit of a game other
than those directly affected due to bombing or
displacement as evacuees.

 
The railways were crucial in the effort

 
Both moving men and supplies
 
 
During the early dark days when invasion was a
real possibility the stations were fortified

 
I well remember and older colleague telling me
that war was a very boring business with from  
time to time spurts of deadly activity 

 
Lets us be thankful for the freedoms we enjoy
