Re: the last tommy.
I watched the programme too. Fascinating and very poignant. A very moving moment indeed when 109-year-old Harry Patch went to an old battlefield site and shook hands with one of his German adversaries.
Like you, Mr C, I was never taught about the history of the world wars at school. However, I think things may be different now, as my daughter is currently studying the Battle of the Somme in her history class.
