RE: THE THREAD!!!
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.
— Lt.-Col. John McCrae (1872 - 1918)
Just want to wish all of you a happy Armistice/Veterans day and remember the fallen of the great war
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.

I'm the veteran in the family, but I'm going to work today, while my wife is off work, and my son is off school. [:D]

Good morning. Did our 2 minutes silence at 11. Nice to see it being observed again.

Indeed it is. It annoys me that so many people can't be bothered to give two minutes of their year when so many gave everything to ensure that the future generations would be able to live freely [:(]

Strange... I thought politics aren't allowed in here? So why does everyone celebrate Germany's defeat?

Wow, that's very clever..[8|] I just took you off my blocked user list this morning, and that was obviously a mistake.

We're not, we're remebering those who died.
