He became famous when he was interviewed on Good Morning Britain and said that the sacrifices he and his friends made in the world's greatest and deadliest conflict weren't worth it due to the make-up of his country in the present day.

The AVC was deeply saddened to hear about the recent passing of WWII Veteran Robert "Bob" Boeke.
Bob served in France with the 86th Infantry Division as a reconnaissance scout, always out in front observing enemy positions. He would cross the Rhine into Germany where he would discover the horrors of Dachau Concentration Camp.
70-years after the war Bob would reunite with an old flame, actress Margaret Kerry who was the model for 'Tinkerbell' in Walt Disney's 'Peter Pan', and together they created their own fairy tale wedding in their 90's.

That's actually heartbreaking, i hate that i am part of the generation that sold western civilization down the drain without a fight.

It's really sad that poor man died feeling that way...
The British left should be ashamed of itself.

To be fair the right didn't do anything to stop it either when they had power

He spoke the truth

That’s a huge understatement. These modern western people don’t give a damn about anything. They are tied to nothing and believe in nothing.
