A milder response than I expected, Duncan, but very apt.

Here's a link to one of my ancestral parishes in Scotland, no doubt similar sentiments were expressed all over the country by other denominations as well.
This is the parish from whence came Mary Mac Killops parents.

pages 1, 2 and 3.

The Commando Memorial is within this parish and over the years this part of Scotland has given many who are Remembered.
