Dame Vera Lynn Has Died!

Dame Vera Margaret Lynn CH DBE OStJ (née Welch; 20 March 1917 – 18 June 2020) has died. The 'Sweetheart of the Forces' was 103. She also held the Burma Star for her morale building efforts in that theatre. May she rest in peace.

Lest We forget!

In her honour, here is probably her best known song.

Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Leo XIV as the Vicar of Christ, the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
