This is a very poignant thread. I do believe we should remember but also learn to forgive. Ihave often wondered how these occassions are remembered in different countries. In the UK, on the 11th November (Armistice Day) we hold two minutes silence (on the 11th hour of the eleventh daly of the eleventh month), to remember the glorious dead of two world wars. The British Legion sell red paper poppies to wear as a token of rememberance- does this happen elsewhere and if so, do you feel the tradition will continue as strongly into the next millenium.
