In Flanders Fields

by John McCrae, May 1915
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep,
though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

The forums will be closed for posting for two minutes at 11.

This is the sort of quality touch that sets this forum aside from so many that have tried before !

I'm sure appreciated by Forces Toffees - past and present

Not much to add to what is written.

To the fallen, Rest In Peace.

To the wounded, Heal well Brothers & Sisters.

To the families, who bear the burden, my Sympathy & Respect.

We will remember them.

Agreed with all the sentiments here.

I hope that more people understand the sacrifices made by those who've fought for their country so that they could have the freedoms that they enjoy today.

We, in the USA, remember the people of the wars tomorrow, with what we call Veterans Day.
