"In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep,
though poppies grow
In Flanders fields"
- by John McCrae, May 1915
Today is rememberance day. Today, We take time to remember our soldiers who fought in world war I, World war II and the Korean war. We take time to honor the young ones fighting in the current war, and our veterans. We wear our poppies with pride,and At 11:00 AM we take two minutes of silence, in honor of our lost soldiers.
