Armistice Day 2018
Tomorrow(or today if you are viewing this then) is the anniversary of the end of the Great War 1914-1918 (unfortunately Mr H didn't learn from the last time and started another one in 1939-45) and we remember the fallen of the World Wars and past and current campaigns. Wearing of the Poppy reminds us of the blood spilt by our ancestors. Perhaps you have a relative that had a relative that fought in the War. Tomorrow/Today is the time to remember them and stand for two minutes silence.
"When you go home, tell of this and say...for your tomorrow, we gave our today"
WE WILL REMEMBER THEM!
Here is a war time bayonet that belong to a relative of my family-he is buried somewhere in Iraq but his body was never found.

The Salvation Army where I live are doing a special service for it so I'll be going to that with family and friends.

RE: Armistice Day 2018
There was a very good ceremony of remembrance at the England v New Zealand Rugby Union game and the League match today(which we got hammered in but had already won the series 2-1) and some impeccably two-minute-silences at many of the football matches as well. I was talking with my mother and she told me that many, many years ago where she used to live, people used to get out of their cars and observe the silence and they could hear the thud of the cannon from London-it was that quiet. We can NEVER forget and it is up to the next generation to learn from the last generation's mistakes.
