British servicemen's debts are fully paid










Bookmark and Share


If you think Its disgusting and that our men and women who have served this Country sometimes being terribly mentally and physically injured did not cause the huge deficit and as such should not be targeted by uncaring DWP contractors who’s sole interest is to take money away from these Heroes, then let your voice be heard and join my Face-book Group PROTECT OUR DISABLED SERVICEMEN & WOMEN FROM GOVERNMENT CUTS

A Piper Plays in Helmand


























They say a Piper plays in Helmand
For the Fallen cross the sea
His calming notes help the wounded
From the mountains comes his strathspey
Not a soul has ever seen him
But the tribesmen do remind
That their forefathers first heard this strange sound
Back in 1839
So if you get lost in Helmand
Don’t worry unduly
You might just hear the ghostly piper
On guard for British soldiers
From across the stormy sea

A SOLDIERS WAR















Time to enter the green zone boys
I will not let you down
Not fighting here for Queen & Country
Or the folks from my home town
My soldier brothers are my family now
We fight for our Battalion
Patrolling into the enemy ground
With hearts as strong as stallions
`Crack Thump`
A round goes overhead
The Taliban know we are here
My corporals shouts and quick commands
Dispels my any fears
Section attack with bayonets fixed
We advance towards the enemy
Our rifles fire a wall of lead
As does my trusty Minimi
`Cease Fire` is called
We wait and watch
Then carry on once more
Towards the enemy
We will not stop
This is a soldiers War.

Grab bags for injured UK soldiers


The problem with the simple things in life is that you take them for granted, yet these things can make such a big difference. As you've just seen, when soldiers are injured in battle it's more important to get them to safety than to get all their belongings - it can take months to get their personal possessions back, leaving Servicemen and women in hospital with little or no basic provisions.


 Show Support And Give Soldiers Back Their Dignity


With your help, Troop Aid sends out ‘Grab Bags’, a collection of essentials (things like shower and hygiene products, basic clothing, and stationary to write home) that give injured soldiers back their dignity. Your £25 pays for a grab bag for a soldier - it's simple stuff that makes a big difference and when you send out a grab bag to a soldier, you'll find out exactly where its gone.


You'll See The Difference...


It’s the simple things in our Grab Bags that have the power to give troops their dignity back.


You’ll see how your money has helped in September, when the head of Troop Aid, Al Sutton tells you where the bags have ended up. Read More  Here
