Henry Allingham, 112, who was in the air service;

Harry Patch, 110, the last British survivor of the trench war, the last Tommy

Royal Navy veteran Bill Stone, 108.

And not forgetting Claude Choules, 107 who lives in Australia and was the last veteran in the world to have seen action in both world wars.

Who read in the paper the other day where two yobs where hitting a jewellers windows with baseball bats and about twenty people stood just watching them,
Till an 87 (I think) Gentleman walked up and tore the ski mask off one of them saying " I have you're DNA now" Both yobs looked at Him,and then fled in panic.

A young man stood nearby watching said " when He did that,I felt really ashamed of myself"

The jeweller gave Him a Rolex watch....

They don,t seem to make em like that no more.

Nope - and if they did make them like that these days, the yobs probably wouldn't have been there in the first place...

Problem is, you can't get involved these days. It's no longer about fists and boots, it's guns and blades.

Respect to the guy who stepped in though.

Sadly it comes down more than that, there's also the knowledge that if you lump the little oik while he's comitting a crime, it's you who'll end up behind bars for *****ting him, while he walks away a free man. Isn't our justice system wonderful?
