What an honour to stand next to Harry Waddingham at the Bexhill Act of Remembrance

I had the honour to stand alongside Harry Waddingham (suitably distanced) at the Bexhill War Memorial last Sunday. His glistening medals bore witness to his service in various theatres in the Second World War.

Why was Harry different to the other veterans at the Memorial?

Harry is 104 years old, not quite as tall as a Guardsman but just as smart. Well done Harry.
