Taking time to remember all those who sacrificed themselves for the freedom of all. I've always made a point of attending a remembrance day ceremony; this year, it was in Toronto.

The UK had a furore over a fake Admiral at #RemembranceDay in #Llandudno, while #KingCharlie was an authorised fake #FieldMarshal in Whitehall.

But inbreeding is not the UK's approved only path to fake military rank.

#GilbertAndSullivan's "Sir Joseph Porter" was a parody of W.H. Smith, the eponymous bookseller whose political career led him to be #FirstSeaLord.

"He thought so little, they rewarded he
By making him the Ruler of the Queen's Navy!"

A little late for #remembranceday this year, here is a song by Les Sullivan, celebrating the work of the #RedCross in World War I, Roses of No Man's Land

Second fake officer spotted at British #RemembranceDay.

Photos have been circulated of a fake navel officer with a chest full of medals, at Remembrance Day in #Llandudno. uk.news.yahoo.com/fake-admiral

It follows the appearance at the #Cenotaph in Whitehall of a fake Field Marshal, a man who never served a day in the army.

Biut the fake naval dude is in trouble, because his cosplaying was unauthorised. The #British want only royal fakes.

TIL that the unknown soldier buried in Westminster Abbey, London, might not be a soldier at all, but a sailor or Marine, and could also come from one of the colonies supporting the British in World War One - meaning not White, of course.

TIL that the remembrance poppy was invented and first made by a French woman, and suggested to the British before coming into common use in 1921.

I'm #Canadian, we call it #RemembranceDay because we HONOR the fallen. We're not racist, childish, morons, who feel the need to rebrand everything in some vain attempt to change history like #Trump. And we don't elect convicted criminals linked to child rapists to the highest seat in the land.

"Three-foot poppies line town railings like early Christmas decorations; temporary installations of the towering silhouettes of soldiers overlook our old stone memorials. Public signs of private reflection, reticent and understated, have been replaced by civic pride perilously close to bombast"

Something has happened in recent years to the way we mark #RemembranceDay...

you are innocent of calling for a coup then why did those convicted all said it was your words that they were following?

The #DUP - not sending anyone to Catherine Connolly's inauguration was petty and pathetic. They aren't governing for everyone, they are running towards the right to see off Jim Allister, is clear as day! It was a snub and they used Remembrance Day as a cover.

Also #RemembranceDay has become an exercise in one up manship - who can look sadder, who can wear the biggest
