I received a QSL card from Viv Morris G4PLY for a Q on 20m with 
GB111HP.  The card has a photo of Viv together with Harry Patch.
The writeup on the flip side of the card follows:

"GB111HP A tribute to Harry Patch 1898 - 2009."

"Sadly, Harry passed away on 25 July 2009 at the age of 111. He was for 
a short time the oldest man in the UK and
the third oldest in the world, though he was better known for being the 
last surviving "Tommy" who fought in the
trenches during World War 1. Harry utilised his fame to advocate peace 
and now rests in peace. May we all learn to
live in peace"       Amen to that.

73, Murray, K3BEQ
