Seems strange to be commemorating the start of a war - in 2103 will we be doing the same for the second Gulf war?

This comment may sound disrespectful but just think about it for one second - the loss of all those brave servicemen and women in Iraq was no less tragic than those who fought in WWI - as well as being far more recent and and still traumatic for living relatives but do we really want to commemorate the start of that particular war?
