SIR – Congratulations to the people of Worcester. What a wonderful turnout by the public to salute and congratulate the troops of the Queens Royal Hussars. All of the armed forces deserve our support, they do not make the decisions as to where they go, but go they do, and do the best they can, often heroically, with the second-rate equipment politicians and faceless MoD bureaucrats deem they can afford to give our troops.

Our troops deserve the reception they received in Worcester and the full and unreserved support of the whole country until they are all home safely.

JULES DOWLING,
Warndon
