special day..Remembrance Day.

Today was a very special day for our family as well as many others in this country and all over the world. We are a Military Family and today we went to The Remembrance Day Service up in Town. (London) My dad is 80 early next year and he still marched today..very proud of him. The image l have chosen may not be the one many would put up to represent today. ....But l think it will make people think about today..Iraq and Afganistan and the British Army and war in general.

The image below is of The Trucial Oman Scouts.
The Trucial Oman Scouts were established at Sharjah originally as the Trucial Oman Levies in 1951. They were originally to be used as an internal security and rural patrol force. It was commanded by a British Army Major with two Jordanian officers seconded from the Arab Legion. Its ranks consisted of 32 other ranks also seconded from the Arab Legion.
