Rejected petition Captain Tom Moore, WW2 Veteran, should be awarded a knighthood.

I think the UK government should present the monarchy with information on the actions of Captain Tom Moore, a 99 year old WW2 Veteran who has managed to raise over £12,000,000 for the NHS.

More details

The afore mentioned individual should already be regarded as a national hero for his role in the Second World War, spending his youth fighting for the freedoms that we in modern day Britain enjoy. He clearly wasn’t done being a hero. Raising more than £12,000,000 at the age of 99 is an unbelievable achievement and shows that he remains, to this a day, a true hero. As such, we believe he is more than deserving of a full Knighthood for his efforts.
