Follow Me Friday






Welcome to my first Follow My Book Blog Friday. Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read.

This week's question is: In light of 11.11.11 and Veteran’s Day tell us about your favorite solider and how he or she is saving the world. Fictional or real life.
My favourite soldier has to be my grandfather. He served in the RAF in WW2. He was the engineer on his plane and did some heroic things which resulted in him getting a medal. Unfortunately he is no longer with us, but he will always be my favourite.
