Lest We Forget
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them, Lest we forget. Remembrance Day (also known as Poppy Day, Armistice Day or Veterans Day) is a memorial day observed in Commonwealth countries to remember the sacrifices of members of the armed forces and civilians in times of war, specifically since the First World War. This day, or alternative dates, are also recognised as special days for war remembrances in many non-Commonwealth countries.
