Remembrance Day - Lest We Forget

62 pages all about Remembrance Day.

Rather than look at Remembrance Day, or Armistice Day, from the perspective of the First World War and the subsequent conflicts which the Day commemorates, we instead consider the Day, and the Act, of Remembrance itself. We learn about the very first Armistice Day, before looking at war memorials, the unknown soldier and the two minute silence. There are pages dedicated not only to poppies, but also to how, and why, the poppy became such an iconic symbol of Remembrance, and others looking at some of the ways veterans are remembered in countries other than the UK.
