I do hope that at 11:00 tomorrow you will all give a two minute silence for our fallen heroes.

They shall not grow old as we who are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
WE WILL REMEMBER THEM.

hi

my son has joined the air cadets this year so tomorrow will be his 1st parade and wreath laying ceremony , i am so proud and will be there to see him.
 

Im also wearing my poppy and will be observing the 2 minutes silence tomorrow:goodvibes
 
I also have my poppy !! My Dad was in World War 2 and got an MBE for services, which he is extremely proud of.
 
Something we must never forget.

We'll be outside our Church observing the silence, we also have a single trumpeter which always makes me go tingly!!!!
 
We will remember them in our house. My late dad was permanently injured at Cassino in WW11 and consequently his disability was something as kids my sister and I just accepted. He set up our local branch of BLESMA and I never once heard him or any of his friends ever complain of their legacies from the war.

My DDs have been brought up to understand and respect the sacrifices so few made (and continue to make) for so many.
 
I was lucky enough to be in Normandy for the anniversary celebrations a few years ago.
Seeing the raw emotion on the faces of the veterans as they walked onto the beach is something i will never forget.
My boys both play football and both teams will stop playing so they can respect the silence at 1/2 time.
My thoughts are with the families of serving forces at the moment.

I observed the silence at home.....not too difficult as i was here on my own
 
hi
i was at the cenotaph where my son was in his 1st Air Cadet remembrance day parade and there was an elderly gentleman standing next to me on his own , he was adorned with war medals, and during the 2 mins silence he was crying , which made me cry i gave him a tissue and a smile and i really felt sad for him. it was very thought provoking.
 
My friend who is a nurse in the Navy was at the Festival of Remeberance last night & at the Cenotaph today. She is due to go to Iraq or Afganistan again in the New year.

I have many family members who have served in the armed forces, so it is always thought provoking.

Our troops do us proud:thumbsup2
 
I to had my poppy on today and i also made a point of pointing out to my children to wear theres and why it was so important.

May god be with all those who remain away from there family's and all those that are soon to leave.
 
Thank you to you all who turned up, all over the world. I was in uniform with my Iraq meddle on. I had a boy of about 10 come up and ask me why I had a meddle on. I told him that I spent last christmas away from my family to help over people have a better life. He then said, thanks and told me that when he is older he was going to be a soldier too.

One again, thank you you all for turning up.
 
fatdave42 - I so admire people like you who fight for our country and to give us a better life.

My husband was in the Royal Navy for 25 years so I know exactly what you go through. My thanks and prayers go out to all those who are in the Forces.
