I have promised myself to write something in English every day, even I do not know what it will be about. Any suggestions are welcome. I'm determined to pass CAE [You must always define an acronym the first time you use it. Never assume the reader knows what it means] at the beginning of 2018, so I still have plenty of time to improve my English skills, and I hope that with your help and support I'll pass the exams.While I was thinking about my notebook entry, I saw some really sad news. At least, it was sad for my country. General Jaroslav Klemeš has died. He was our national hero and the last member of a paratroop group called Platinum - Pewter. He was the one who has helped in the fight against the Nazi regime during the World War II. I was once lucky enough to meet him. He was kind and humble. As I was asking him why he did all the things he did, even risking his own life, he smiled at me and said: "It was my duty to protect my homeland and take care of my fellow citizens. If I had the chance to change my life, I would change nothing." His death is a great loss, not only for the Czech Republic, but also for Great Britain, as he was a member of the British RAF [Royal Air Force]. My dear General, thank you for your service. Rest in peace.
Lest we forget
This was a good effort. You need to revise the rules of when to use the past simple verb tense, and when to use the present perfect verb tense. You are currently getting them a bit mixed up.
