Remembrance Sunday 2009 Veterans of many conflicts

This Year was particularly significant,being the 70th Year anniversary of the start of WW2.
Also the recent deaths of so many British Troops of the peace keeping force in Afghanistan, served as a stark reminder of the tragedies of war.
There was a huge turnout to the many Services of Remembrance in British Cities, Towns & Villages.
My report is of Colchester, the home of the Parachute Regiment.

Under construction.

Excellent gallery, well framed shots of the vets and a poignant reminder of man's folly. V

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years contemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

A beautiful growing gallery about this historic event! It will be very highly required by the history and I hope by the present living people too. Big vote!
