11.11,是「和平紀念日」。然後我們看到香港的早晨,由三聲真槍開始。
'When you go Home, tell them of us and say,
For your Tomorrow, we gave our Today.'
This morning, members of the Royal Family joined faith leaders, political leaders, veterans and serving members of the Armed Forces who gathered at the Cenotaph on Whitehall to remember those who have lost their lives in conflict.
The word cenotaph means ‘empty tomb’ and it symbolises the unprecedented losses suffered during the First World War.
The Cenotaph was unveiled by King George V on 11 November 1920 at the same ceremony which saw the Unknown Warrior laid to rest.
Initially intended as a temporary structure, the Cenotaph was made permanent after the British people, still grieving for the huge losses of the First World War, took the monument to their hearts.
