Hundreds listened to the Final Put up, the normal last salute to the fallen, on the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum Monday morning.
At 11 a.m. on Nov. 11, 1918, the First World Struggle got here to an finish, and to at the present time, Canadians bear in mind the sacrifices made by those that stepped as much as serve the nation.
Ten veterans who served within the Second World Struggle had been in attendance of Monday’s tribute, most of them over the age of 100.
One of many veterans there was Jack Finan, the oldest residing Lancaster pilot.
Some who contributed to the warfare effort had been so keen to assist, they lied about their age.
“I figured it was my duty to do so, when I could see what was going on around me…and what the Germans had done to us at home,” 97-year-old Malcolm Andrade stated.
Others, like 100-year-old Mary Thompson, did their half by making uniforms.
As conflicts proceed to plague the world, the previous was remembered this Remembrance Day.
