Remembrance Day

[lionobsession]

Please, whilst you're reading this, take a moment to remember those who have died fighting, as well as those still risking their lives for us.

I feel honoured to play the Last Post in assembly for my school and I shall be wearing my poppy with pride.

Remember them...

[ShadowMist]

Yeah, we had the two minutes silence and all...
I always end up thinking about what it's was like down in the trenches off WWI, or how frightening it must be to living or fighting in the middle east.
It's been almost a whole century since the first world war broke out, and all those brave men and women are still vying for peace...
I hope they can all rest easy, knowing they made a difference...

Yes, I agree. I feel very passionate about Remembrance Day. I learnt today that most people fighting in the world today are aged between 18 and 22! I was shocked to think that they could be some of my friends in a few years!

Yeah, two of my friends are actually planning on joining the armed forces, One of them as an R.A.F pilot.
Apparently most young people don't want to join up these days though, which is good sign.
Too many parents are having to bury their children.

I'm gonna be listening to this song a lot today, it's from one of my favorite bands and it's based around soldiers in war and that's how they made the music video. It's called Bad Company by Five Finger Death Punch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVo8g7T39A4

I feel so proud to be protected by such brave people. There's a service near our house so we get their planes all the time. They look for suspicious looking people.

I know a nice song too, represents coming home and being reunited with loved ones...
