I was so far from home and wept shamelessly at the playing of the Last Post under the arches of the Menin Gate. Walls etched with the countless names of fallen soldiers ... too many Australians ... too far from home ... in a senseless war. Thank you to the Last Post Association for keeping their sacrifices alive.

Wouldn't it be lovely if there was a videolink through this site to the Menin Gate every night then people from all over the world could join those at the Last Post ceremony.

It was an amazing opportunity for me to see The Last Post Ceremony tonight and I find it truely moving that this ceremony still takes place after all these years. Thank you very much Last Post Association for all your work so that it is still possible to be seen even today, almost 100 years later. May all the brave soldiers rest in peace and know that they are still remembered for their incredible sacrifices.

It was and honour and a privilege to take part in the Last Post ceremony on 21/10/11 something I will remember for the rest of my life. Listening to the Last Post being played was a very emotional and moving and I found it hard to hold back the tears. Hopefully I will be back to see the ceremony again.

This was a privilege and honor to view the Memorial Wall at the Menin Gate on 25 Sept 2011 and Last Post ceremony, The Last Post played by The Regimental Band of the Scots Guards brings a tear and sense of belonging, "They indeed will not grow old as we grow old". Bless the Last Post Association for making it possible to share in this lasting debt of gratitude which we all owe to the men who fought and fell for us all.

30,000 Acts of Remembrance

By the 9th July 2015 the buglers of past and present at the Menin Gate will have sounded the Last Post on 30,000 occasions. To commemorate this, the Last Post Association will publish a special edition book. We need your help!
