Captain Sir Thomas Moore (30 April 1920 – 2 February 2021) R+I+P

Captain Tom has died! He was a true hero, in the best sense of the word. Lest we forget!

I would normally post the Ode of Remembrance, but the line 'They shall not grow old' is hardly appropriate in this case.

An announcement of his death from Forces News

And the BBC tribute that was done during 
his fundraising for the NHS

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. 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 Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), 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.
