Description

Remembrance Day, the eleventh day of the eleventh month, is a day to commemorate the sacrifices of members of the armed forces and civilians in times of war, specifically since the First World War. It is observed by Commonwealth countries on 11 November to recall the end of World War I on that date in 1918.

This portion of the Ode of Remembrance is often read at Remembrance Day ceremonies and services.

I am wearing a poppy badge every ANZAC and Remembrance Day, because I am grateful for the sacrifice of men and women who protect our beautiful country. Lest we Forget.
