Salute to a true hero

-

I have no shame in admitting that I shed a tear or two when I heard of Captain Sir Tom Moore’s death. For some, the news would have resulted in no more than a shrug of the shoulders but for many it symbolises the passing of an era. An era of honesty, respect and selflessne­ss, when national unity and courage stood up to what even now would seem insurmount­able adversity.

Might I suggest that the proposed memorial for Captain Tom be located on the Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square?
