The Eleventh Hour, of the Eleventh Day, of the Eleventh Month

of the Year 2017.

And Nations of the Free World shall fall silent in Honour of those who made the Supreme Sacrifice in defence of that Freedom.

We remember them all, yet let us keep a corner in our hearts especially for those of our comrades whose service began through the gates of the school of the

Arborfield Army Apprentices.

AANM TS 0410

We Will Remember Them.

We will recall

Our yearly tribute placing

The hopes and dreams that slowly had to fade.

We will go on

The lonely future facing

Knowing too well the sacrifice you made.

We will forget

The loneliness and worry

The pain of parting and the tears we shed

Forget as well

The aching and the longing

Keeping our memories of the time we shared

We will remember

Heads held high with pride

We will keep vigil with our men who died

Author unknown.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old,

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn,

At the going down of the sun and in the morning,

We will remember them,

We will remember them.
