Story
THE Sun has today launched a fundraising appeal to support 98-year-old war hero Peter Gouldstone who is fighting for life after being battered by burglars in his own home.
News UK, publisher of The Sun, has made a corporate donation of £5,000 to the appeal.
Peter was found lying next to his bed suffering multiple injuries after he was attacked on Bonfire Night - all for his Panasonic TV.
Peter lived alone after losing his wife Joan in 2013.
Peter, who was decorated for gallantry in the Second World War, is now fighting for life at an east London hospital.
All money raised will go to Peter's family to help him fight one more battle.
