| In the last days of the most brutal world
conflict that mankind had ever faced “The Great War”
and “The War to End all Wars” came to its final bestial,
bloodthirsty and devastating conclusion on the 11th hour, of the
11 month, November 1918.
This, the most
unforgettable time of 1914 would be for all mankind become a marked
year in man's history that would without question be remembered
for many, many generations to come, as the most horrific, bloodthirsty
and destructive time of war, that took all their loved ones to an
unforgivable, unimaginable slaughter and to their deaths!
Mankind was
left in utter turmoil as to what the future would bring, but those
left behind would ensure that those whose numbers are well in excess
of 9, 000, 000 (in 2014 it has now been estimated that nearly 15,
000, 000 were killed) who were killed in ”The First World
War.”....Would Never be Forgotten! Never,
in its history, had mankind ever faced such a terrible bloody slaughter
of a generation of “boys” who in their innocence fought
for King and country, who would never return home, for they lie
to this day in graves scattered across hundreds of square miles
around the world.
All around the
United Kingdom in every village, town and city there are memorials
to the fallen dead of the Two World Wars, across the world memorials
are placed for those who remember– and those killed in wars
thereafter that continue down to our day. Many
thousands will gather at these and stand in silence, with their
own personal thoughts and tears of a lost loved one and loved ones,
of friends, sister's, brother's, father's, wives and boyfriends
who were killed.... and those killed in recent years and months
of wars that continue today.
They will be
without doubt be remembered on this day November 11th, 2014.
Yes, we today
live in relative peace and tranquillity, due to the ultimate sacrifice
of their lives of the many millions in all the wars, and we should
uphold their sacrifice with Honour, Humility and Grateful Thanks
and Remember those “Who Sacrificed Their Lives For Us All”
