Remembrance Sunday.

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM – 26.04.06. Families of fallen Iraq war victims lay wreaths at the Cenotaph and hand a letter into 10 Downing Street on April 26, 2006 in London, England. (Photo by Marc Vallée/marcvallee.co.uk) (c) Marc Vallée, 2006.
Today is Remembrance Sunday when the nation remembers its war dead. My family and I remember my Great Grandfather who survived being gassed in the trenches of the First World War and who later died as a result of those injuries during the Second World War. We also remember my Great Uncles who did not return home to east London from the First World War trenches.
