36 youngsters went on a WW1 Battlefield trip in March. We stayed in Ypres and attended the service that is held at 20:00 every night. I wore a beret, my medals and Dad's & Granddad's medals. It is a very moving experience and one or two of the lads "got it" there too.
I can imagine that experience deeply effecting many people who we'd normally write-off as uncaring. I honestly think that's a brilliant and incredibly important thing for youngsters to take part in.
