45 years ago, Remembrance Day was almost abandoned.
First world war survivors were dying, second world war veterans were ageing, and the increase in proceeds of the poppy appeal barely kept pace with inflation.
The British Legion might have imagined itself ageing with it. Instead, war came back. |

In 1968, no British soldier died on active service. But that turned out to be not just the first but the only year since 1945 when the claim could be made.
The uncomfortable question is whether our way of remembering war, or at least war's casualties, has contributed to making that possible.
The pacifist White Poppy movement, and some Christian thinkers, would argue that it has, that there is a hypocrisy about it that is reflected in the way the dead are honoured while the last military hospital is shut and those who survive with physical or mental damage have to fight for adequate care.
They detect a whiff of militarism in the way civilian dead are ignored, and jingoism in the refusal to recognise that many of the enemy died believing they were fighting for freedom too.
But above all, they are offended by the sight of politicians who have embroiled us in war laying wreathes at the Cenotaph in memory of the young men and women who have died fighting it.
This is the final corruption of the original intention of remembrance: it has not prevented war happening again.
Worse, it can be seen as a balm to the consciences of all of us who have failed to stop it.
As you were |

Thanks for this Joe. My parents had their children very late in life so consequently, I have grown up knowing about what part they played in WW2.
Dad was very young and went on to see active service in Italy and Africa.
He maintained until he died at the age of 88, that he fought for freedom and liberty.
He suffered all his life with the aftermath of the carnage but he NEVER let on instead working hard and providing for his family as best he could.
So I'm not so far removed from war and neither is my son who was named after his grandad and had a close bond with him
We will remember. |

Not at all!
I'm just alluding to the elusive Platinum membership "
Do a forum search for 'the 100 club'.....it's a sideways hop to the top of the queue and if you know the owner..... |
