About the Author :

Autumn. The season of mellow fruitfulness. At time of writing I have just returned from a short break at the ancient manor house which was once HQ for the famous American airborne brigade that gave rise to the TV series, Band of Brothers. At this time of year, close to Remembrance Day, let us give thanks to the soldiers, airmen and sailors of all nations who lay down their lives to secure freedom and justice for all. 
At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we shall remember them.
