Colonel Tom
We need more people like this in our lives. A true gent and inspiration. Congratulations Tom!
Yes, a lovely person, well done for everything he’s done and happy birthday.
Absolutely agree. Fantastic.
Just watched his reaction to the Spitfire and Hurricane fly past-his face was a picture.Im sitting here in bits😭
He has brought tears to my eyes watching him and the fly over. Also the song by Michael Ball singing happy birthday to him. xxxx
Just heard that a little boy with spina bifida ,inspired by him, has already raised half a million. Amazing!
A truly inspirational man, it makes your heart proud. A wonderful tribute for his 100th Birthday, so well deserved, we are able to share too. X
A true inspiration and a gentleman 👏👏👏
I must look later, not seen any news yet! He is amazing.
Calling him captain tom on bbc news ... has the promotion not happened yet?
I was wondering the same.The presenter on our local radio station explained that its an honorary title not his official army rank which is captain-so his actual name is still Captain Tom.I think everybody will probably call him Colonel though.
