That fall of poppies always brings a lump to my throat, especially as they land on the young service men and women who are standing below.
I am glad, too, that your son made it back from Iraq in one piece. Glad, too, that we now recognise that going through war means they are not exactly the person they would have been if they had lived that period at home; it is bound to leave a mark just as every other experience does.
