Remembrance Day is something that I was taught about in School however the BB and the Cub Scouts really sent the message home, I remember going on parades with the BB on Remembrance Sunday.

Remembrance Day however doesn’t normally fall on a Sunday and the actual day set aside is the 11th of November so we remember the sacrifices by people during wars. This post was written before 11am today and queued on the server to publish on 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month and you will find that most business, shops, train stations etc will observe a 2 minutes of silence.

It’s worth remembering that even if you don’t agree with war, the people that go to fight in our name do so to protect our country and only because the politicians we elected tell them to do so, if you don’t like a war do something about the people in power but always support our troops. Pay your respects to the people who have died in our name and let’s not forget that during current wars the men and woman in our armed forces that fight for us.
