It is Poppy Day (Rememberance Day, Memorial Day), and I post this flower in rememberance and honour of my father who was a war hero in both WWI (captain in the Preobrazhensky Regiment, Russia) and WWII (major in the Intelligence Corps, UK), and whose war injuries led to the illness that finally killed him a few years after WWII.

Many thanks to all those brave men and women, now and in the past who have served their countries defending our freedoms in time of war.

WWI often gets overlooked in lieu of it's second part but I have always found WWI more interesting because it turly changed the course of history. WWII was simply a follow-up.
Check out my tribute to WWI airmen!
