Absolutely,
I will be at little ceremony with my dad who served in 2 wars on Monday. I will also keep those in my prayers who have lost loved ones.

Enjoy the weekend

That was so beautiful! Thank you. And yes I will be remembering fallen comrades who weren't lucky enough to make it home wiith me

that was so incredible and what a tribute. my son is over in iraq now for the third time. God Bless You. ive saved it in my favorites.

i come from a military family myself, lost my dad just last year but he taught everyone of us that it is very important to remember, to respect and to honor those who have fought for our freedom,and for those who never made it home, like my fiance, so to everyone who was in the military kudos to you and a very big thankyou for what you have done for all of us

I love this, I wanted to send it too my adopted daughter who lost her husband in Afganistan, but need the right time. Thank you, my dad served in WW II and my son is a marine.

Lyn: Let me know and i can provide you with a copy! :)

Thank you Savery, this town holds this day very close. We lost someone so young to bush's war and a year later his mother died.
My sons and many of their friends gather several times a year to pay tribute to this fine young man and all the others they have known.

Savery, I don't have sound here right now.. but I will save the link for when I do.

We have Remembrance Day on Sunday here...as you all know...11th Hour of the 11th Day of the 11th Month The Armitist.

We too in Canada remember, I will be taking my girls to the Centotaph tomorrow morning for the Remembrance Day ceremony, very important we teach our children about the valour of those who serve to keep us safe.

I hope everyone has a lovely Veterens Day or Remebrance Day.

Very moving tribute to just SOME of the Canadian soldiers fallen in Afghanistan:

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.

Freddo..Thanks :)

Played to the melody of TAPS

Day is done,
gone the sun,
From the hills,
from the lake,
From the skies.
All is well,
safely rest,
God is nigh.
Go to sleep,
peaceful sleep,
May the soldier
or sailor,
God keep.
On the land
or the deep,
Safe in sleep.

Love, good night,
Must thou go,
When the day,
And the night
Need thee so?
All is well.
Speedeth all
To their rest.

Fades the light;
And afar
Goeth day,
And the stars
Shineth bright,
Fare thee well;
Day has gone,
Night is on.

Thanks and praise,
For our days,
'Neath the sun,
Neath the stars,
'Neath the sky,
As we go,
This we know,
God is nigh.

sunday is rememberance day,the one day of the year when we pause to think about the millions lost or wounded in conflict. those soldiers sailors and airmen were not warmongers. many were volunteers, barely out of school, whose lives ended before they had really begun. most will use the two minute silence to think about those who perished in two world wars. but lest we forget, lets offer a grateful prayer to the brave men and women now fighting and dying in the heat and dust of iraq and afghanistan. we salute you.

thanks.

Will salute my dad, who was in the Air Force during the Korean conflict and was an air traffic controller in Alaska.
