Remembering



My sons are in Air Cadets and will be attending a Remembrance Day Ceremony tomorrow. Their paternal grandfather didn’t fight in the war, but taught pilots to fly during that time. They have heard stories from their father passed down from his father. The war is more real to them than many of their friends because it has a face on it.


I am not old enough to remember a time when then world was at war. I am glad for that. But I am old enough to keep the memory alive for those who gave their lives for us.
