As this is an international forum, I thought I would post John MacCrae's poem,"In Flanders Field", for those who may not have heard it. you can find it by browsing my website, or go here: Poppies.html It was written by a Canadian doctor at Ypres in Belium in May, 1915 after the death of a friend. John MacCrae, too, did not survive the war.

By the by, please excuse the quality of the audio of the reading on this page. I'm not much on public speaking, nor have the voice of a professional speaker

but a static, "read me" poem just wasn't appropriate for Remembrance Day. ------------------ Robert (Bonzo) Lindsay, Coordinator 28th (North-west) Battalion Headquarters http://dreadnaught.home.icq.com [email]nwbattalion@icqmail.com[/email]
