Lest We Forget

Today is Remembrance Day. Where were you at 11:00? I made it down to the city hall.

It was a very moving ceremony, everybody had a poppy on, there was a flyby by 3 old Harvards, in missing pilot formation with one trailing smoke.

In Flanders Fields was read out, followed by the Last Post on trumpet, and then 2 minutes of silence, which was followed by bagpipes playing the Lament.

These always make me cry.
