DUP BANNSIDE candidate PHIL MOFFATT had recently visited the battlefield of the SOMME to pay his personal tribute to those who where prepared to pay the supreme sacrifice in defence of the freedoms of our realm.
"It was a very moving experience to visit the graves of so many of our British troops who lost their lives on the battlefields of France. As a nation we owe a great deal of debt to those who gave their tomorrow, that we might enjoy our today." said Phil.
"I had the great honour of conducting a short religious service at the grave side of some of Ulsters finest men, who left our shores, never to return home again. During this year of 2014 , we note the 100th anniversary of the beginning of the 1st World War and salute the memory of our brave servicemen who paid the price so that we can enjoy the liberties and freedoms which we so often take for granted." said Phil
" Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few"
Sir Winston Churchill
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends
