In Australia there are service men and women's clubs in almost every town
called RSLs Every evening in every one the lights are dimmed and these
words are heard over the loudspeaker.
At the going down of the sun
And in the morning
We shall remember them
Lest we forget.
Everyone stands and faces the eternal flame in silence, all activity stops
out of respect to the fallen.
Hats off to the Aussies. They've got it right.
