occasion as just another holiday This is to be deplored yet as the years pass such an outlook becomes more and more understandable Our children and our grandchildren have not been person ally involved and their appreciation of the occasion their realization of the sol emnity of the moment must stem from what they learn from us For us the years soften the stark tragedyhand we are in cllned more and more to recall only the moments of elation and humor Why do we stand with bowed head in silence for brief moment of time to day To remember those who gave their lives for their country intwo wars is the broad answer Weshall be doing more than remem bering the many of the armed forces who gave theirllves We will be recalling our own personal moments of sorrow In that brief spell of time when all the world seems to fall silentwe will recall the young fighter pilot school friend who married in abombshattered London church and teas killed three weeks later in action in the Middle East His name

tothe younger generation The difficulty is in no way helped by making this day general holiday Remembrance Day is an occasion when while continuing with ourrnormal daily task we are called upon to pause for moment in respect for those whodid not return It is an occasion when we and those who follow us can be remind ed of the futility of war and the necessity to dedicate ourselves to solving
