Many have already forgotten

Firstly, a huge thank you to the team at Peninsula News for allowing residents this space to express their concerns.

I have to say I agree with Norm Harris of Umina (Peninsula News, November 15).

Earlier this year, I attended the Anzac Day service at Gosford to honour our veterans, both past and present.

While the crowd was repeating "Lest we forget", I found myself looking around and wondering how many people had forsaken the freedoms fought and won for us by allowing themselves to be forced into having an injection they did not want, or perhaps being forced to completely close their business, sometimes going broke in the process.

Lest we forget?

It seems many already have.
