Garnet Harland Remembrance Service is necessary By David Roorda CHSS, Gr. 9 The 18 -year old boy stands on guard duty. He, along with 20 other men, had his eyes peeled for any enemy movement. That soldier, with the red brush cut, had graduated from high school just three mon- ths before, but it seemed like eternity. First he had gone through military training at Valcatier for two months. Now he had been on the front for two weeks, and stood guard duty 12 hours a day. He stood at the trench for what seemed endless hours, straining his eyes to see something. The young soldier had grown used to the ever present ner- vousness. It was a week and a half later. Suddenly he was wakened from his sleep by someone yelling "Attack!" In a flash, he pulled on his battlegear. As the men raced out of the underground barracks into the trench, he grabbed a rifle. The weary soldier joined the line of infantry men firing over the side of the trench. The captain yelled something, and they climbed over the edge, toward the enemy. Bullets whizzed past his head. He saw some men topple over backwards, but continued. He fell to the ground and loaded the gun with the last of his shells. By firing seven shots, he downed three men from the enemy fo es. a gun clicked. No more bullets. This was the with most of the other soldiers. He pulled o is handgun, but suddenly all was dark. The s 'er had been shot in the head. Although this may or may not be true, it shows us the great sacrifice that many made during the two Great Wars. The Remembrance Day service is necessary because of the many sacrifices men and women made. It is to remember and honour them. Proud to wear a Poppy By Joy Mabon Holmesville Public School, Gr. 6 I am proud to wear a poppy on Remem- brance Day, for it reminds us all of the men and women that fought for our country's freedom. But it also reminds us of the pain that they felt when they lost a friend or relative. And of the worried families that prayed and hoped that their lived ones would come home when the long war was finally ended. It reminds us that they risked their lives for their country. For what they did we thank them by wear- ing a poppy in remembrance of the ones that did not come back from the war. They were killed so that we could be free and to choose what we want to do, to choose your religion and worship that religion freely. To go to any school, or any church, for this we are proud. The veterans of World War I and World War 11 make these poppies with great care so that we may show our gratitude to the men and women that were killed in the terri- ble wars. They now lie in peace and silence in Flander's Fields. Over them grown many beautiful red poppies that sway in the cool November breezes. They whisper softly of the brave men and women that fought for their country and now lie beneath them. We also think of the happiness and thanks when the men and women came back from the war to their waiting families. But we also think of the sadness in the hearts of those who lost someone they loved. They died for our freedom. For this we are proud.
