No Draw

Extracted from RBL Magazine June 2016 page 11 “Turning back the clocks” displayed in a photograph taken in Seaford, Sussex nearly one hundred years ago, recently recreated by the Seaford RBL Branch, to whom we thank for this insight into days gone by.

NO DRAW – a fight to the finish, by Lloyd George

Determination won the day

We would never ask for quarter

Our enemies forget fair play

When we read the slaughter

 

Submarines – Their special pet

They thought would win the war

But England is – England yet

As she was before

 

And every Jack upon the sea

Or Tommies on the shore

Who fought for a victory

But would not have A DRAW
