Good to see he is still with us.

What a dashing and inspiring figure he was in his day!

God bless you Mr. Blair, for your successful fight against the Axis and for your continued longevity!

 

Indeed, and hopefully he will remain with us for many years to come and inspire millions more to follow in his brave footsteps.

 

 

[Stoat]

He is still a handsome man!

And most importantly, he's remained a great man on the inside as well.

 

[Stoat]

BTTT

 

Thank you! :-)

‘I didn't think anything more of it, and then all of a sudden, there I was, hanging on the wall of a post office.’

Had the same thing happen,...but then, enough about me...

Great post. 

Thank you...I'm delighted that you've found it to be worthwhile :-)

 

 

[Stoat]

God Bless him, he’s a hero

Agreed, and fortunately for us all there are still some in our present day who have risen to the challenge.

There, they hang posters of their hero's in the P.O.
Here, we hang posters of our most famous criminals.
And we wonder why more workers don't go Postal!

A hero indeed...

Indeed, and my great hope is that the Darkness that seeks to envelop us all will never dissuade our modern era heroes from rising to the challenges that plague the free world.

Just joking but yeah, sounds like him; “Guilty as hell, free as a bird”.

[Stoat]

God bless Mr. Blair and all of the brave people who served.

 

Agreed.

why can’t we be given the same chance to fight obama Communism as he was?,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

At the moment, the battlefield for the soul of our Nation, as well as that of Great Britain, is at the ballot box, the voting booth, the public square and in the hearts and minds of people who all too often don't understand the nature of the enemy and sometimes don't particularly care.  It's a very different kind of war, one which we will lose if we don't do our parts.

If someone can't fight for America or Great Britian in the modern Armed Forces and the War On Terror, then you can still fight against Zero's brownshirt thugs with your telephone, your computer, being careful and selective about where and how you spend your money, by educating your friends and neighbors on the truth of what's happening, and by not allowing the lies of the Left to go unchallenged.

If the Left wants to escalate the domestic culture war, a quote from Ann Coulter comes to mind....something she said after she was unsuccessfully attacked during a speech she was giving at a University.  It went something like. 'If the Left wants a street fight, bring it on.  We (the Right) have the men and we have the guns'.

 

 

[Stoat]

Yes, the hero’s are still with us but they get fewer by the day. I visted my 87 year old cousin on Saturday. He’s was a machine gunner with the 79th infantry division in WII.

 

Everyone in the world today owes your cousin and all those he served with the most profound debt of gratitude imaginable.

May God Bless him and all those who have kept us free.

Having worked for the US Postal service for a short time in years past, I am similarly amazed that there are not more 'incidents'....and I'm quite thankful that there aren't ;-)

 

[dennisw]

He IS a handsome man, even today......

Kind of amusing actually. He’s one of the fittest looking and handsome looking 91 year olds I’ve seen and I’ve seen many. Good genes probably

The RAF had fun too... delivering beer to the front after D day

[Stoat]

LMAO! Wonderful! Great photos and I'm delighted that they were able to make that happen :-)

Thanks very much for posting :-)

Thank him for me, will you?.
