The Cross of Sacrifice was designed in 1918 and is to be found in every Commonwealth War Cemetery containing more than 40 graves IN MEMORIAM

The regiments of men, inch perfect, stand in line
Unflinching in the weather, wind, snow, rain and shine
The place they stand is green and beautifully kept,
The watchers wipe their eyes from tears that they have wept.
White headstones they all are, as far as eyes can see,
Lives laid down for country and for people to be free.
Walking through the graveyard, reading names and dates below
The young, the old, and boys who lied so they could go
One wonders how they felt at what they had to see
Dulce et decorum est, pro patria mori

Lest we forget

They gave up thier future for our today, a debt we can never repay. From my family two great uncles in the first world war.
