Letter: Diana: memorial ideas, grief without tears, media manipulation

Sir: One possible memorial for Princess Diana would be an award for self-sacrifice, in any form, by men and women in the humanitarian field overseas. It is quite extraordinary, even in my limited experience, how many people perform acts of heroism up to VC level which are never even noticed by the authorities.

It might be that, such is the devotion of these people, some would refuse an award. Others might not.
