As we mark the #Falklands anniversary, we remember the 255 lost and all who served. Alan, who turned 18 on the day of the surrender and later lost his sight, now becomes our President. We remember those who are gone, and stand with those who continue to remember, like Alan.
Two photos of Alan side by side, today and when he was in service
