Warbird Information Exchange

Monday is Memorial Day in the United States. If you wish to pay homage to those who have fallen for our country, feel free to use this thread to do it.

Thank you to all those who made the ultimate sacrifice so that we have the freedoms we enjoy today.

In Flanders Fields
John McCrae, 1872 - 1918

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place, and in the sky,
The larks, still bravely singing, fly,
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead; short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe!
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high!
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
