[315:365]

 

"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."

Laurence Binyon's poem For the Fallen

 

-----

 

Today we gather and remember those who've given the ultimate sacrifice, to remember those who spend their lives protecting civilians and keeping our home land home.

 

To all those in uniform and to those who stand behind the uniform, I thank you for all you do and all you continue to do.

 

This day is for you; those in the past, those in the now and those of the future who live to keep our country strong and free.

 

Thank you.
