100-Year-Old Veteran Captain Tom Moore Knighted By Queen Elizabeth | NBC Nightly News
Shame NBC couldn’t post more Real News, like this.
They do. Don’t you pay attention?
I’m a bit kerklempt. Sniffles.
Good Show! Thank you!
This is a proud moment for him and his family.

You too will be one …😜😜😜🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
We’re all old!
so what troll
KISS THE RING.
There is a lesson for the American people, work together to fight the virus.
@Fernando Jimenez I’ve not assumed anything I’m just asking for all of you to stop blame one another and get together to fight the virus. Up till now Trump as made it worse to get people together and use mask. I have not seen B.L.M. Advocating for not use masks. And by the way, I’m Portuguese I live in the U.K. and I couldn’t care less if you are republican or democrat, I do care that people don’t have humanity.
Albano Almeida Humanity has always been divided through selfish needs so I’m pretty sure the American people will still be divided.
Well, you can’t fight a virus when millions of people across the country mass together for days and days, sweating, shouting and not social distancing. Look at pics of the protests that happened in Washington. Of course numbers spiked. Come on. A good cause or not, the virus is an equal opportunity illness. Common sense. And yet, some states have again banned all public outings EXCEPT more mass demonstrations. Truly mind boggling.
We will be okay though. People actually are working together, regardless of what the media reports. All the best to everyone.
@Lucky I would give you some more value if you would mentioned the anti look down and anti mask protests, it would made you look more interested in the causes the just one side to blame.
@Maiden Laura this is exactly what his comment is implying to united we stand divided we fall
He was singing ” I would 🚶 100 miles ! ” 🎶
The true embodiment of a British hero arise Sir Tom
congratulations
This REALLY got me deep down, squeezed out some tears and got the sniffles. There’s a real human being.
I thouth she was going to cut his head off.
You thouth wrong!
@Jim Carlile this isn’t disrespectful lol
Yawn….
@Jim Carlile shut up u dont even know what this evil family done
Turtle But I’m sure you will tell us by spouting your anti British bile words.
The final figure he raised was around $54,044,550.00.
the 40 was back in April.
a BS moment in the middle of global pandemic… wait she’s the queen of England… then who really cares?
She’s not the Queen of England, just goes to show how much you know.
@Dazza she literally is
@jackzter04 No she’s not, she’s the Queen of UK and the monarch to many other countries.
I love this man!
Good job Sir Tom. Amazing!
She’s 94 he’s 100. We’re fascinated by public pay phones still existing, imagine what *they’ve* seen come and go over the years
The 1918 pandemic
@Rough collies If he’s a 100 wouldn’t he be born in 1920? Got to do the math bro
Wish him healthy 🥰
God Bless you Sir you deserve it! From USA
if “never too late to achieve your dreams” were a person.
USA murdered British in the past, but now cares about these island people
We gave you everything you have right now. Civilisation, Democracy, rules of law, and most of all our language 👍
He is no longer Captain Thomas Moore. He is now SIR THOMAS THE KIND! Knight to Her Majesty the Queen👏🏻
What a sucker
@oman ferrow what’s your problem?
@•Nìghtshade Edìts• you name less people can’t understand that
oman ferrow And you are a blower.
@Robert Cawley
Then you must be a sucker
Just goes to show what useless people the royalty are in these times of crisis. Why not borrow a guillotine from the French?
knob
Yes send it over but you will be the only one we will use it on .
What an Honour! What a man!! Well done, Sir.
*S M I L E*
In my mind he’s far more valuable than she’ll ever be. Thank you for your service sir I wouldn’t be alive without you and those brave soldiers who fought for our freedom.
Very nice , congratulations Sir Captain Tom … and thank you …
What an inspiration! Age cannot stop you from achieving your goals!
This where God is – in good and kind acts. Not in lies and deception that the WH peddles. God bless Sir Tom.
What happened to his promotion to colonel?
He was made Honorary Colonel of Army Foundation College.
Sir Thomas, we are very proud of you.
This is awesome
the nazi queen
fisch kopf Says the brain dead lunatic out on day release.
imagine if he was black we would be having street parties and statues erected in every city.
We love him!
What an amazing chap and a real English Gentleman
He is a colonial not a captain
…do… you mean ‘colonel’?
@Steve spell check mate, oops
@William Jacklin Happens to us all 😁
My Salute to Sir Captain Tom.💛
Well deserved sir!
Owners of the ‘dislikes’ are sad, sad people
They’re disgruntled antagonists unhappy with their lot.
You Americans can’t bear to even consider there may be another currency then dollars 🙄 he raised £32.7m
It’s NBC news… this is being broadcasted *to* Americans, so of course they would translate it to American currency.
Do you think financial news about trade or commerce concerning the UK in Germany or France or Italy inform their audiences using the British Pound, or the Euro? What makes actual sense?
Steve I’ve always seen foreign currency reported in the currency that it actually is. They may say that’s the equivalent of £xxx. Can’t speak for European countries as I don’t speak the languages so not watched any news reports
awesome dude he is.
What a total.disgrace..when is someone or something is going to get rid of that wicked old demanded bat! She’s an evil witch!
carl Bock We are not interested in your prejudiced views and bile words.
Just Beautiful God Bless you Tom & Queen Elizabeth
Congratulations sir you deserve it you are truly an inspiration to us all
I’m sorry your majesty
Mmmmmm strange comment.
I kinda know her and I behaved badly so I’m sorry is that weird 😅
An honor well merited by two amazing people whom have served their country with passion.

How did he raise $40 million by just walking
Fundraiser
I salute you Sir 👏 https://www.youtube.com/c/TheWaterBoyuk
Two WW2 veterans still serving their country in a castle nearly 1000 years old. History.
What a fine man!
She’s a Jewel thief.
And you are a misplaced Saddo
@Gerry Freeman Thank you for being Honest.
What has this got to do with jewels , we are not interested in your prejudice views.
@Robert Cawley Thank you. I wrote down what you said in my diary. Anything else you will like to tell me??
@Cantrell Jacombs yea go fuckyourself your opinion does not matter
Jajaja la doble de la bruja satanista será por ella y sus hijos están bien desaparecidos hace tiempo
With all the negativity in the news,this was a pleasant change.if this 100 year old guy can raise so much money,then the rest of us can try to some good instead of just complaining 😊
“No matter how silly the idea of having a queen seems to us, we as American’s must be respectful” Frank Drebin The Naked Gun.
Lmao
I am against the monarchy.
So we the many are against you.
Such an inspirational man. Sign this petition to get him a statue on the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square!!! https://www.change.org/CaptainTomFourthPlinthTrafalgarSquare
No masks ?
The UK managed it well enough that they don’t need masks right now
💪
I WAS LIGHTED. BETTER THAN BEING KNIGHTED. ALL THAT METAL MESH AND THE HEAVY SWORD WITH ALL THE METAL HANGING ON ME LIKE THE DEAD WEIGHT OF MY EX NOPE BE LIGHTED IS COOL.
Sir Tom isn’t just any Knight of the Realm, he’s the peoples Knight who’s united us and deserves to be addressed as Sir. Contrast him with Sir Desmond Swayne, a Member of Parliament who stood up in the Commons to gripe about “The imposition of wearing a mask while shopping.”
Sir Tom your our Hero, swayne you don’t even deserve the title afforded to a pronoun.
👏👏👏
He describes the experience of being under enemy fire during WWII as “having an element of discomfort”, bless you sir for your service.
Sir Thomas Moore. An officer and gentleman. Bravo sir.
They should build a statue of him where Edward Colston stood. he’s EARNED it.
