Lest We Forget…
Honouring and remembering those who sacrificed their lives for us, including our Walden Circle Veterans, thank you. Thank you for the freedom we have today.
The flowers, which grew in many of the battlefields of the war, inspired a poem, In Flanders Fields, by Canadian doctor Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae. The red poppies were then adopted by American academic Moina Michael to remember the loss of life in the First World War.
