Several families have made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. Least we never forget past and present. The longest war still goes on.
Sad that the day has become little more than a theme to base retail sales on. It is a day of business as usual for most.
Across Britain & the Commonwealth it is a day of respect & remembrance. Even if you are not at a service at a cenotaph in your town at eleven minutes past the eleventh hour on the eleventh of November you stop for a few moments to remember when the guns fell silent at that time in 1918 & give thanks & respect to those who gave their all.
