Posthumous Award of VC - Antoni Chmielowski - 12-14-2006 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/north_yorkshire/6179661.stm This has just been announced. My thoughts go out to his family. RE: Posthumous Award of VC - Zemke - 12-17-2006 As an American serving here now, I wish to thank Great Britain for standing side by side us in this fight. Regardless of how people feel about the war or its conduct, I am proud to call England a true friend. I believe what we are doing is right, I may have issues on how we are going about it, but I am not in charge, I just execute the orders given, like any soldier does. God Bless Great Britain RE: Posthumous Award of VC - Antoni Chmielowski - 12-17-2006 As the son of a former serving RAF NCO (my dad 25 yrs), I am always sympathetic to anyone who has served their country, whatever their nationality. And so, I keep my eyes open for such stories. Who knows why these guys do what they do, but they will always have my respect for their actions.
