Solihull father of killed Iraq war soldier looking ahead

A father whose son was killed in the Iraq war has said there are "happier times" ahead, despite still awaiting for answers from an inquiry into the conflict.

Reg Keys' son L/Cpl Thomas Keys was killed in 2003 when a 400-strong mob descended on a police station in Majar al-Kabir.

In an interview with the BBC, Mr Keys said he still used his son's electric razor and wore his boots in the garden.

"I look at it as a storm I have passed through and indeed, happier times are ahead now," he said.

The publication of the Sir John Chilcott's inquiry has been delayed to allow those who have been criticised to respond.
