This video includes a reading of the poem 'In Flanders Fields' by Lt. Col. John McCrae and the well known excerpt from the poem 'For the Fallen' by Laurence Binyon.
The voiceover was performed by good friend and actor Michael Haynes (michaelhaynes.name).
Both Michael and myself took this very seriously as we wanted to create something that would honour the memory of the fallen.
The images of war fill you with great sorrow and regret. The poems and the way in which they are read by Michael are passionate and proud. The music, 'Abide with Me' and 'Sunset' touch a cord in your heart. And finally the poppy fields signify peace and remembrance.
This is actually version two of our production... remastered with better quality, rare images and much better audo quality.

its so sad when you thing about everyone that put their lives into this thinking it was just a game, and then dying, and in a way, even sadder when you think about all the vetrans that came home injured and had to live with the memories of the brutal war.. i cry when ever i hear this song.. lest we forget
