I am always curious about those territorials, whether WW1 or WW2 who carried on with the colours after the conflict was over.
I wonder what went through their minds when it was remembrance day or when they heard gun fire.

I have often thought the same about the regular soldiers who stayed in the Army after serving in either of the two World Wars. So many of them must have been affected by all they had seen and been through and yet continued to serve their country. Poor pay and an indifferent nation is hardly a great incentive.
