Shotley peninsula's Sunday Thought: Act of Remembrance

By Derek Davis

12th Nov 2023 | Opinion

We will remember them...
We will remember them...

The Act of Remembrance consists of the following:

The Exhortation is recited:

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.

The Last Post is sounded.

The Two Minute Silence is observed.

Reveille is sounded.

The Kohima Epitaph is recited (optional):

When you go home, tell them of us and say,

For your tomorrow, we gave our today.
