Isn't there a way to embed little vids? Would save people having to leave site but I managed to catch this by accident last night but what a little story this fella's got, well worth 1/2 hour of anyone's time:
2009 saw the death of the last surviving British soldier who fought in the trenches in the First World War. The band of old soldiers who served in the Second World War is dwindling fast. Stephen Sackur talks to World War II veteran Fergus Anckorn, who was shot, survived a massacre and lived through three years in Japanese prisoner of war camps.
