We will remember
I posted this last year at this time. For me, it will never grow old and never grow stale. We must remember the past or be doomed to re-live it.
Canadá, el norte fiel, fuerte y libre.
Across my land, across 6 time zones, every hour for six hours, an Act Of Remembrance will be played out on November 11th..
The cannons will sound.
A bugler will play the last post.
A lone piper will play his lament.
Reveille will sound on the bugle.
Canadians across our vast country will soon stop to remember in profound gratitude our men and women at arms.
We will remember the fallen. Our Highway of Heroes
We will remember those who having offered themselves were returned to us.
We will remember those who returned but were not sound in body, mind or spirit.
The great sacrifices of the past and of the present will be taught to our children and their children for generations.
We will remember them
To our fallen we can only say in unison with the whole commonwealth of nations:
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.
To our veterans, a heartfelt “Welcome home. Thank you.”
To Canadian Forces wherever they may be in the world. "Thank you."
