Silver Plated Pin also available Yorkshireman Captain Sir Tom Moore began his Second World War service with the 8th Battalion, Duke of Wellington's Regiment, later joining the Royal Armoured Corps. In 1944, he was promoted to the rank of temporary Captain, aged just 24. He served with the Fourteenth Army, the so-called 'Forgotten Army', in Abakan in western Burma, where he survived dengue fever. Sir Tom never forgot his time in the Army and for 64 years, he organised the 8th Battalion's annual reunion, the longest continual annual reunion in the Duke of Wellington's Regiment. In his 100th year, Captain Sir Tom became a national inspiration when he walked 100 laps of his garden in aid of the NHS during lockdown. Not only did he raise the nation's spirits, he also raised over PS38 million for NHS Charities Together. Like a burst of sunshine, this beautiful Poppy features a spinel gemstone at its heart surrounded by 100 ridges celebrating Captain Sir Tom's 100 years, his 100 laps and the 100 years of the Royal British Legion. Gold Plated Brass Dimensions: 3cm (H) x 2.7cm (W) x 1.6cm (D) Also available on Amazon
