You're Top Poster: #1   | The Reverend Prebendary Chad Varah RIP Not a military figure but some individuals should be recognised for their contributions to society. I am not a religious person but The Samaritans is the one organisation that I have had the greatest admiration for. From its religious roots it has expanded and now reaches out to help any and everyone who needs a hand. And in this fractured society of ours, its most important contribution is to provide a listening ear. For that fact alone, I would like to remember Reverend Chad Varah http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.../09/db0904.xml

You chose dishonor and you will have war." (Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.) What did the Australians do in ww2 and other conflicts?
