D Day veteran my uncle George Woods never talked about the war - TopicsExpress



          

D Day veteran my uncle George Woods never talked about the war or went to any commemorations but he did lip synch on All Together Now in the first verse of our video below.Backstage at the Royal Court a few months later I introduced him to a German journalist and they hugged and he burst into tears (though it might have been the whisky) - he said he had never met a German before! After he passed away a few years ago - his daughters found a diary which my mum had sent him for Xmas 1943- they didnt know about it but he had filled in every day from Jan 1st to Dec 31st 1944 including D Day itself it is a remarkable insight into the horrors of war from an ordinary Tommy Gone but not forgotten! youtube/watch?v=F7MwXniOD44&feature=kp
