Tommy...

A hotel has apologised after a soldier was refused a room under its "no military personnel" policy, while he was on leave visiting an injured colleague.
Corporal Tomos Stringer, 23, from Gwynedd, was visiting a wounded friend in Woking, Surrey when he was turned away from the Metro hotel, after showing his military ID card. He spent the night in his car.
Cpl Stringer, who himself has a broken wrist, was on leave from Afghanistan.
The hotel had experienced problems with soldiers staying there and staff had been asked to be "cautious". But it admitted a "mistake" in this case.
Hotel apology for soldier refusal

The hotel should re-examine its exclusion policy towards the armed forces. It is unfair to tarnish all soldiers as thugs.
Yes, every part of our society has an unruly element. But these soldiers are prepared to put their lives on the line in order to defend this country and the people who live here, which includes the management of the hotel.

For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Chuck him out, the brute!"
But it's "Saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot...
