The Cause
I have read recently that some feel that having a holiday for Remembrance Day is not such a great idea. I can't help but think that these people have an agenda of their own. Why in gods name would anyone appose this cause? To me it makes perfect sense. One …

Why is this campaign important to you?
This is a day that is being disgraced, shops refusing to sell poppys, its about time it was given the respect it deserves.
I dont know Joanne but it happened last year too,its disgusting.x
Yes Joanne,thats the real reason,thanks sis,trying to sugarcoat it but thats it-plain & simple!!xxx
There were 6 of us from one family in the Army during WW2.
I wholeheartedly support making Nov 11 a NATIONAL HOLIDAY.It is a time to remember.
I'm all for remembering our soldiers, fallen or not, who have served our country at home and far away. I wonder if an actual day off is the answer? Will people actually take the time on Nov. 11th to remember or will they use it as just another day off?
Something to ponder.
Austin and I will be walking downtown to the cenotaph tomorrow morning. The most touching part of it all is watching the older former service people walk by, some slowly, others with canes and also in wheelchairs. Very humbling and absolutely makes me grateful for what they have endured on our behalf. For those who came before, are in now and for the future men and women I am thankful for their diligence in protecting our country.
Never forget our servicemen and women. Never forget the ones that never came home and never forget the ones that did come home. We are all indebted to you. At the going down of the sun, and in the morning we will remember them.

Why not. The establishment wants another public holiday in the second half of the year and it would also make remembering the fallen more poinient. At the moment there is nothing much out there that helps more people remember.
Will keep this memoroy longer..

Because this is a true and kind reason to show appreciation.
lost my grandfather in the first world, and my uncle in the second world, nothing is too good for our brave service men and women , who risk their lives everyday in action so we can live safe and free, anything we can do for them, is not much to ask,,.dk, rogers wales uk..
a solid gold thumbs up from me...
LEST WE FORGET.
