Unyielding courage echoes through history, from the valiant soldiers of the Attack of the Ulster Division to the chivalrous Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. In every era, brave souls have emerged, like Grace Darling rowing fearlessly with her father and Corporal Joan Pearson sending WW2 greetings cards filled with hope. Propaganda posters inspired a nation as prime ministers made bold statements, while Che Guevara's image on a Havana wall symbolized unwavering bravery in Cuba. The Mad Robot on Amazing Stories magazine cover ignited imaginations with tales of daring adventures, just as Army Chaplains in Great War Deeds provided solace amidst chaos. Moss, Mr Cledwyn Morgan's loyal dog from Ystradgynlais exemplified unwavering loyalty and courage. Even amidst tragedy, such as the brave Titanic engineers who faced their fate head-on or the garrison's heroic sortie during Gibraltar's siege in 1789 by John Trumbull’s brushstroke; bravery shines bright. And let us not forget suffragette demonstrations rallying at Hyde Park for equality – a testament to fearless determination throughout time.
