457 British service personnel lost in Afghanistan.
Not numbers. Names. Faces. Mates.
Some of us spent months out there.
We came home. Too many didn’t.
Even now… we’re still losing more. The impact doesn’t end when the tours do.
Let's remember those who paid the ultimate price and those still fighting long after.
We remember them. Always. 🇬🇧

9-year-old lad walking home from football sees something not right.
Three blokes trying to drag a girl into a van.
Most people would freeze… he didn’t.
Started shouting, ran straight at them, caused a scene.
They panicked and ran off. She got away.
Nine years old.
Fair play to the kid that’s proper courage.
Dave Nelmes recently sent Danny the setlist from a Nuthin' Fancy gig at The Dutch House in London on 27/04/78! NF was Luke & Danny's first band, and Luke was writing songs even then, though L&D say they have no clue how most of them went! Thanks Dave.

A school teacher lost their battle with cancer, and the entire high school, students and staff alike stood together to give a heartfelt guard of honour. 🥺❤️🩹
