I was very moved by the last post to the fallen, but they are not forgotten thanks to your associations dedication in helping to keeping their names alive. Thank you.

It is very humbling that your organisation commemorates the sacrifices of the soldiers. Thank you.

My son and I, with our partners, will be attending this ceremony this coming September for the first time, to honour my 2 uncles killed in WW1. My father was unable to visit the graves of his brothers, one in Messines and one in France, in his lifetime so in a sense, he will be with us in spirit I'm sure. I grew up with the story of the death of these two brothers being told at most of the family gatherings over the years. The story of their sacrifice was remembered and retold with pride and pain. I have inherited the diary of my Uncle Allan and have read extracts at ANZAC services here in New Zealand. I intend to bring his diary with me, almost to complete the circle, and as a tangible connection with these uncles I never knew personally but feel so connected to. Colin Eade

I visited the Menin Gate Memorial today after spending the day with friends in Elverdinge. As a Australian (living in Brussels) it is indeed a moving experience and I will be returning again soon. Finding the names of two relatives listed among the dead (one English and one Australian) was particularly poignant.

I hope I can agree with, because I think the war was very bad and I also see it in the war movie's You can learn a lot from.

In 2009 our students took part in the Menin Gate Ceremony. Singing and laying a wreath to the ANZACS listed on the Memorial was a once-in-a-lifetime experience for the students who will always remember the wonderful opportunity they were given by the Association.

I attended with members of my son's school, who were on a remembrance tour. A very moving ceremony. Our thanks to the Association, who have kept these men's mory alive.

This year Queen Elizabeth's Grammar in Horncastle made its 13th and final annual pilgrimage to Belgium to commemorate old boys of the school, as well has students relatives that fell in the Great War. As part of this we participated in the Last Post ceremony, which this year we attended on the 29th of March. This year Archie read the Exhortation, Charlotte lay the wreath and Lucy and Dominic escorted. It was a great honour to participate in the ceremony and although I will not be going to Belgium again with QEGS I will return to Belgium to remember those whe fell in The Great War. We Will Remember Them.
