Lads.

Lets not give cunts like him airtime.

Lets just focus on what today means to people.

Lets remember our relatives amd friends we lost.

Lets thank the lads and lasses that serve to protect us all.

Lets thanks the lads on here that served. THANK YOU LADS 🙏.

And i know Rifle gets grief but if he is a serving solider then seperate to anything i thank him for his service still. I could not do it.

Lest we forget boys. For 1 day.

LEST WE FORGET.

the war time generation has almost gone and the boomers are ageing, I wonder what  Remembrance Day means to gen Z and the millenials.

@fukyu i think it's more prominent today than when I was a kid. Probably due to social media. Even at the football I don't remember it being given as much respect as when I was a kid. Might be the passing of time

I agree it's more prominent but what does it actually mean to the younger generations beyond the ceremony they see, they can't understand the sacrifice and hardship because  they have never experienced it or known people who have.

@fukyu its each generations responsibility to educate the next I guess. It wouldn't have meant much to me had I not been taught about it and understood its importance.

Respect for the fallen should surpass personal politics, I see the poppy as a symbol of loss, pity  he  can't see it the same way.

It should be on the curriculum to watch the  brilliant "The world at war" documentary series, I've seen it a dozen times and it still impresses me.  Excellent narration by Sir Laurence Olivier.

@fukyu I'm actually watching that atm on a YouTube channel. I'd not watched it before. Really well put together

Still remember during school the whole class sitting on the stage watching the world at war documentary, impressed me straight away

That was a massive series supposedly.

Unless its a Morgan joke im not getting!

I am a bit of a space geek tbh.

Me and Tim used to sit for hours reading and talking about it.
