  4. Just had the sad news R.I.P War veteran Allingham dies at 113 11 mins ago Press Assoc. * Print Story Henry Allingham, the oldest surviving British serviceman from the First World War, has died at the age of 113, his care home said. Skip related content Mr Allingham served with the Royal Naval Air Service during the Great War, later transferring to the Royal Air Force and serving at Ypres. "Everybody at St Dunstan's is saddened by Henry's loss and our sympathy goes out to his family," said Robert Leader, chief executive of St Dunstan's care home in Ovingdean, near Brighton, East Sussex. Mr Leader said: "He was very active right up to his final days, having recently celebrated his 113th birthday on HMS President surrounded by family. "As well as possessing a great spirit of fun, he represented the last of a generation who gave a very great deal for us. "Henry made many friends among the residents and staff at St Dunstan's. He was a great character and will be missed." A funeral will take place later this month at St Nicholas' Church in Brighton. Mr Allingham had five grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren, 14 great-great grandchildren and one great-great-great grandchild. He joined the Royal Naval Air Service in September 1915 before transferring to the RAF in April 1918 and was the last survivor of the Battle of Jutland.

Over 45,000 died for us during the 2 world wars. The government is still refusing to let these brave men and their families stay in the country they have fought for. Please sign the petition to get justice for all Gurkhas no matter how long they served for or when. These people are an asset to our country and should have every right to live here.” · Read the petition · Petitions homepage Read the Government’s response For many years, the Brigade of Gurkhas have shown bravery, commitment and dedication in serving this country, and continue to do so on operations today. This Government has done more for Gurkhas than any other. It was the first Government to grant settlement to Gurkhas and the first to equalise pay and pensions, with over 6,000 former Gurkhas and their families already given the right to live in the UK. In April we took steps to increase the number of Gurkhas eligible to come to this country by 4,000 or, including families, 10,000 people. The House of Commons has now expressed a clear view that all Gurkhas should be entitled to settle in the United Kingdom if that is what they wish. This Government respects the will of the House of Commons and recognises the strong feeling and public support for this cause. Consequently, we have announced today that all former Gurkhas who served for longer than four years will be eligible to apply for settlement in the United Kingdom. They will also be entitled to bring their spouses and dependent minor children. There will be no time limit on applications. This scheme recognises the unique nature of the service given to the UK by the Brigade of Gurkhas and is offered to them on an exceptional basis. We believe that in announcing the new policy today, we have met their concerns and those of Parliament.

    Oops

    When you said OFF road !!!!!!!!!
  20. While I was browsing the web for pictures of vehicles used during the War in Algeria, I found 3 pictures showing a 2CV modified to mount a recoilless rifle or a MG. All the hints lead to suppose this latter was a MG151 already in use in the naval helicopters. Stunned by this kind of vehicle, I questioned the archives department in Chatellerault (procurement agency) and in Vincennes (department of Defense). I was answered this vehicle really existed but with no more details to add
