He is a veteran survivor of the First World War, but now the war in the trenches of the country has been passed from living memory, and history.

Poppy Day, the celebration of remembrance, in November, now mark an event to experience the no life.

What does it mean to you? And what would I say that this festival in the coming years?

This is not a war. One is to commemorate the dead of the war. Commemorate the fallen of the 1st World War is important. But it is also important in the dead of the 2nd World War II, Korea, the Falklands, Iran and Afghanistan to remember.

Remembrance Day is not about the story is to remember the sacrifice of all soldiers. Although the ceremony at a specific time and date is bound, it does not mean we should forget the sacrifice of others.

Happy

After moving forward so that we remember the sacrifice that was made to the service. However, it is of the generation that knew not but it was not clear the extent and cruelty of the thing. However, literature and history should be taught and while it Rememberence soldiers will continue.

However, it must mean the same, regardless of whether it WW1 soldiers and sailors alive. We always have to remind all those men who in the 1st World War I and 2 World War II dead. There are still some of our soldiers died and Memorial Day is for them too.
I still have contacts with the day of remembrance, as both my grandfathers fought in the 1st World War II and returned home. My father was saved enter WW2, because it was the occupation of the reserve, but joined his company for technical support, although this may have been killed or captured near Dunkirk. There was to celebrate Memorial Day, after all the years when the troops who have died in Iraq, the Falklands and Afghanistan, remember.

Memorial Day was originally established to the senseless massacre of all young people in the 1st Remember World War II dead, it never happens again, but it always happens again and again. Please insult our intelligence by suggesting that the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, ext. fought for our freedom.

I remember my grandfather, a veteran of the Boer War and World War I, he went into the sky with his regiment, the Royal Welch Fusiliers in 1957 - his age - a soldier of the Queen.

Recall

Poppy Day is always the same for me if the veteran is alive or not. Remember all those who went to war (whether intended or not) and fought for our freedom. Some have paid the ultimate price with their lives! Never forget the sacrifices they made. I will teach my children the importance of the day and how the dead should be respected.

Always remember!

Memory festival goes on, but started after 1 World War II is still relevant today, as women in the military and in wars, especially in Afghanistan. Festival of the report is important for me as my grandfather fought in the 1st World War, was in the Royal Horse Artillery in northern France.

Poppy Day is for me a reminder of the sacrifices that military personnel, past and present have me and my family. We must never forget men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice so that we can freely develop ourselves and therefore these discussions and debates unscathed. We sholud honor these people.

Rembrance Sunday is not only a reflection of the sacrifice of the men who fought in World War I, but those in the 2nd And following World War served in all conflicts.

The passage of Henry Allingham, Harry Patch in a few days, everyone is sad, but not to remember.

"Poppy Day" is not and never will be.

With the sample of the opium of the person. "Or someone in his name, make a donation to the Earl Haig Fund for the disabled.

This will be in office until the last British soldier died from the disability.

its sad, but I just hope that future generations in the 1st WW11 history of World War II and taught better than they are today. My generation can still remember the bomb sites and wounded two wars. So lets hope not only in history books and a 30-minute lesson in the school

Poppy Day, commemorating the armistice said all names for the same day as well known as the day the facility, but still the memory of all soldiers who gave their lives to the struggle for freedom

Poppy Day (Remembrance Day), recalls not only those who fell in World War I, but all members of the Armed Forces and Civil Protection were killed in subsequent conflicts. Our support will always be necessary.
