“They shall grow not old as we that 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.”
The most moving thing about today’s two Remembrance Day parades/services was the rippling round of applause from the crowd in Boston this morning. A very British but also public way of saying thank you to all those who have served and are serving in the military to protect our way of life. If I wasn’t holding a trombone I would have joined in.
14/11/10: We will remember them

If not for those brave men long gone we would not have the life or freedoms that we now have and so many abuse. As for these brave servicemen and women now, Thanks, Blessings, Prayers and so much Admiration I feel for them, especially considering that today they have a very different but just as important and dangerous role.
