War is all encompassing and long wars such as WW1 and WW2 involve everyone, not just soldiers and airmen and sailors, but civilians caught in bombing raids, working on the land, in factories in mines, doctors, nurses, ambulance crews, air raid wardens, Red Cross, WRVS, volunteers, the list is endless and today as well as those armed forces who gave their lives I like to think of everyone else caught up in those wars (and subsequent wars whether they are called wars or not) who did their bit.
Thank you.
