Gurkha Highlander, Last post for now.

I'm just back and started on the piles of letters that require thank you's for donation to the Gurkha Welfare Trust.
Just two short notes enclosed with cheques.
" My father fought with the Gurkhas in WW1 and WW2. He always said he felt safe when they were beside him. Please excuse my writing - I am not so well now, but the Gurkhas are all heroes."
" I have no connection with the military or the Gurkhas, but I was saddened and angry to read that some of these brave soldiers are handing back their medals because of the shabby treatment they receive from this Government. I just felt I would like to help their cause."
Indeed.
