I was surprised to read that Defence Secretary Geoff Hoon wants to build a new memorial to honour the servicemen and women killed since the Second World War (Argus, November 12). Surely the Cenotaph is the place to honour all our heroes? It's a beautiful, stark monument and we need no other.
The money should instead go towards helping the families of these brave people and the ex-servicemen and women who may need help. It would be interesting to have the views of the Royal British Legion and other associations on this.
