Remeberance Day
Here in the UK we remember those who fought and those who died on this day, 11th November. This day was brought about after the 1st World War and remembers those that fought then, and also those that fight now for our country.
Thanks,
J.Jex.

Indeed, my thoughts are with the families of the victims that fought for us.

In Flanders Fields
By: Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD (1872-1918)
Canadian Army
IN FLANDERS FIELDS the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.Become a supporting member!
