Lest we forget
Remembrance Day, also known as Poppy Day or Armistice Day, observed on the 11th November, honours the ultimate sacrifice made by allied armed forces members during World War I and World War II.
Many Bermudians joined the ranks of those who put themselves in harms way; and those who returned brought with them their accounts of sacrifice and grace, terror and bravery that touched us all.
Right now we need to remember more than ever. May the darkness of the past remind us all how precious life is!
