THIS weekend the nation will fall silent to remember our war heroes.
As time passes and fewer veterans are here to mark Remembrance Day with us, it is more important than ever for the tradition to be continued.
All young people should be taught the message behind the day, not just taught to be silent for a few moments.
While we can never imagine the horrors of those who gave up their lives in battle during both the world wars and all conflicts since, those couple of minutes enable us to start to reflect on the enormity of their sacrifice.
