Well folks I stood at my local memorial with hand on heart facing the Australian flag at half mast in silence remembering the fallen and those that fought the war to end all wars. A tear was shed, not only for those that did not return but for all that endured those terrible years. Those left at home to wonder if a loved one would return, the nurses, engineers, home front personal, and the innocent, elderly, children, and animals who had no control of their destiny .
As the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11month fell, there stood a solitary figure, while the rest just rushed by thinking of themselves.
I will never forget.
