Ghanaian veteran reaches out to UK’s Capt Tom by Vlad(m) : 6:04 pm |
|
A 95-year-old World War Two veteran, Pte Joseph Hammond from Ghana, has sent a video message to fellow Burma veteran Capt Tom Moore, asking him to send a message to other veterans in Africa. In the message he said: “I fought in second world war in Burma, just like you, and I have been inspired by what you did in Britain to raise funds for the people.†The war veteran Capt Tom raised more than £32m ($30m) for NHS charities by walking 100 laps of his garden before his 100th birthday in April. Inspired by this, fellow war veteran Pte Joseph then walked two miles a day around Ghana’s capital Accra, for a week, finishing his challenge in Monday. He raised just over £21,000 for front-line workers and veterans in Africa. In the video message he said: “I would appreciate a note from you to share with my colleagues, the veterans in Africa.†He is one of thousands of Africans, then under colonial rule, who fought for Britain in World War Two.
