Discussion: UK Veteran Who Once Escaped Care Home To Attend D-Day Services Dies At 90

Discussion for article #231676

Bless 'em all, bless 'em all, the long and the short and the tall – goes an old British barracks song only they don’t say “bless”.

Bless ‘em all,
Bless ‘em all.
The long and the short and the tall,
Bless all those Sergeants and WO1’s,
Bless all those Corporals and their blinkin’/bleedin’ sons,
Cos’ we’re saying goodbye to 'em all.
And back to their Billets they crawl,
You’ll get no promotion this side of the ocean,
So cheer up my lads bless 'em all
