Do you have this in the States ? Its a big thing over here. On the 11th the nation has a minutes silence and we remember the fallen. The RBL sell poppies to raise money for forces charities and sadly the whole thing has been hijacked by right wing trash like britain first and others. This is a welcome counter to the racists.

We lost three family members in the first war. On one dreadful day my Great Grandmother got a telegram in the morning telling her that her brother had been killed. In the afternoon she got another one telling her she was now a widow. Her husbands pay was docked at the point he was shot and she received no further help from the British Empire. I cant even begin to understand what she went through with four young daughters to bring up.
This isnt a unique story.
