Lets We Forget

“For the Fallen” by Laurence Binyon. That poem and “In Flanders Field” by John McCrae (a Canadian) never fail to make me tear up. For me, they have almost a sacred feeling.

My dad used to sing some of his marching songs and although he is gone I still remember each and everyone of them.

I found a photo of my grandfather when he was stationed in Palestine after WWII. His father fought in Galipoli (he was a crazy cat man, and named one of his cats Izmar after his time in Egypt), and his parents met at a munitions factory. My grandmother's dad was killed in an air raid during the Blitz.
