War veteran tumanggap ng 2,500 B-Day cards

TUMANGGAP ng 2,500 cards sa kanyang ika-90 kaarawan ang isang war veteran na nagtungo sa Normandy nang hindi nagpapaalam sa kanyang home care.

Naging laman ng balita sa mga pahayagan si Mr. Jordan makaraang mawala sa The Pines sa East Sussex, makaraan tumakas para dumalo sa D-Day commemorations.

Itinago niya ang kanyang war medals sa ilalim ng grey mac.

Labis ang ligayang nadama ni Mr. Jordan sa pagdiriwang ng kanyang kaarawan kasama ang misis niyang si Irene at kanyang mga kaibigan, habang inawitan siya ng Candy Girls na nakilala niya sa barko habang patungo sa France.

Sinabi ni Mr. Jordan said: “I just can’t believe it. It’s quite overwhelming to be honest.

“I want to thank everyone who sent me a card or a gift. Sadly I can’t thank everyone in person so I hope they get this message.

“I’m just one man and I’m nothing special. Anyone would think I’d defeated Hitler on my own.

“There were a lot of other people on the beaches of Normandy that day, this lovely attention is for them really, not me.”

Ikinatuwa ni Mr. Jordan ang balita na maglalaan ng pondo si Chancellor George Osborne upang magkaroon ng pagkakataon ang war veterans na lumahok sa annual pilgrimage patungo sa Normandy. (ORANGE QUIRKY NEWS)
