Happy Birthday, Vera

Recommended Posts

To all you Brits out there,

Vera Lynn, born 20 Mar 1917

When tomorrow dawns, she will by 100 years old.

During the darkest hours of World War II, she was one of you that held your country together. She also travelled the world to entertain British troops wherever they served.

When I get in the mood, I'll often pull up some of her songs on my computer and listen to them. Here are three of my favorites:

I hope that you give her a rousing celebration tomorrow, she's a grand old girl.
