If only we could remember these thoughts of saddnes and sorrow about a week before any such troubles ever began again.

Maybe that way, we'll never need to have a Poppy day ever again.

Oh how I wish.


It would have taken a lot more than a week, the likelihood of war was already smouldering, it just needed a breeze to blow it into a flame.

 

There is a photograph of a German srtillery reserve unit with two cannons, on one is written 'To Paris' and on the other 'To London'.

 

The date was 1911.
