Remembrance Week – Thank You and Well Done, 1945

If you Kept Calm and Carried On, you were rewarded with a Thank You and Well Done. It’s the British way, what more do you need?

Well, maybe a cup of tea and a biscuit.

This was awarded to my Grandad, Driver Allan Pickup, by Lieutenant-General Miles Dempsey, Commander of the Second Army (and who was, excitingly, nicknamed “Bimbo”).
