Army Cadet Molly MacLoughlin (14) took part in a Battlefield Tour which changed the way she thought about life
18 August 2021
SGT Molly MacLoughlin, an Army Cadet from Essex ACF, was funded by ACCT UK to travel to the Somme battle grounds, Serre road cemetery and Thiepval memorial in order to commemorate the anniversary of the signing of the Armistice contract in WW1.
After seeing all the names on Thiepval Memorial of all the brave soldiers whose bodies were never recovered, it really made us realise how lucky we are to live the way we do nowadays as free people. Due to those thousands of men and women, we won the war and live the way we do in true British fashion, something to bear in mind and always be proud of.
