I couldn't care that hes black as thats got nothing to do with it, I have top respect for this man and bless him for what he did not for what he was.

[ChristinaCroft]

@samj5664 I couldn't agree with you more!!! You are so right!

[samj5664]

Brave man proud that you did ur bid!

I think that Walter was right to fight in the 1st World War. He was British born and bred. He broke through racial barriers and didn't let negative comments like yours stop him from doing what he believed was right. I am not a war supporter, but I am in support of Walter Tull's decision.

[Kalydosos]

Walter Tull should never have joined the British Army, so called commonwealth citizens.

Should leave the BNP to fight colonial wars since there's many in the military anyway.

O-T is an amazing actor- hope he does well in the the future!

[edavismookie25]

They did not want him as a officer because it would show what people of non white ancestry could accomplish. A black man as a equal to a white man militarily? Think of it.

In this Obama period, this clip brings memory of true heroism - as no respecter of colour. I am impressed and hope we can see the full film. Olatunji Ariyomo
