Meet William Cash, a previous Sergeant Major in the army. He signed up for the army on Renshaw Street and served for 12 years including in WW2. At the age of 86 he came down from Skelmersdale to see the service in Liverpool. The hat he is wearing is his original beret from his time spent in the army.

    Everyday we should thank the veterans for the freedoms we enjoy.

    The rain on his jacket adds nicely to the poignancy of the image.
