Good column, and it's true....I met Jack Hinton, New Zealand's last living Victoria Cross recipient at the time, and asked him why he charged into a bunch of Germans, blazing away with his Tommy gun, until he was wounded and captured.
He had an answer I will never forget: "I just didn't like the way things were going."
