At 11am on 11/11 we pause for a moment and reflect on those who have gone before us, paying the ultimate sacrifice to protect our way of life.

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.
