Heyy James --you have a good sense of humor.

Seriously though I like Poppy for a name for your mates loco and is coming up to ANZAC day over here in Oz (on 25th April) when we remember our fallen soldiers -- and especially those in WW1 at Gallipoli in Turkey. G-J

Remembering from my history lessons the Anzacs took a heavy loss at Gallipoli.

I think us Brits are good at remembering our own losses, and those of the Americans, but often sadly forget the Oz and New Zealand troops.

All soldiers from whatever country they served for deserve the same respect, honour and valour for what they did, and ridding the world of tyranny.

They ALL deserved to be remembered for what they did, dying for their country!

British, American, Australian, New Zealandish ( ), German, Russian or whatever
