The boots come out and shoes will shine
people gather and await patiently
poppy are pinned to clothes for all to see
the veterans get ready and stand at ease
awaiting the order to march forward for all to see
they wear the badges and beret and medals too
with pride and honour the 11th hour is due
they assemble across the world in many great cities
to remember those who went before them and sacrificed they lives
in the name of king and queen and country
and those who have given service since the world wars
and many conflicts of today we remember them
as we march forward on this armistice day
don’t forget us when you go home
as we will always be here resting in fields and country’s so far away
we went in hope and peace and gave our lives so mercifully
for you back there so you could live in a peaceful world today
for this we honour and remember you on this remembrance day
as the last post sounds from the bugles played
comrades and veterans and family’s to children and parents
will remember loved ones too who gave so much with such pride courage and bravery for me and you
as they gave there lives for us today in far-flung fields and country’s so far away
we stand to attention and salute you the fallen the brave and the veterans too
you will be in our hearts always and in our memory’s today and forever may you rest in peace and tranquility.
a minutes silence in your memory.
from Kevin Newman ex R.A.F

This past week has become the end of something special not often seen
where small group of people got together
to remember the brave and the few
who gave there lives for our country
serving us too
they started as small group of friends
all from the Royal british legion
who came together to mark their respect and pay tribute
to our brave servicemen men and women
as they flew into RAF Lyneham
on their way home too
they passed through the wonderful town
of Wooten basset
where as their hearses gathered
and got ready for their final journey
home where there bodies
will rest and be remembered too
these wonderful people
of Wooten basset took time out of their day
to line the streets in numbers
with the family’s of the dead servicemen and women
as they passed their way
they stood to attention and saluted them
with pride they showed us something
special as their numbers grew
untill they became hundreds and drew in the media too
the local pub opened its doors to families of dead men and women
and made them welcome too
to the people of Wooten basset
are thanks goes out too you
hold your heads up with pride
you are truly kind
and very special people too
so this is from an ex serviceman
with great respect i pay tribute to you.

He gave his last performance yesterday
whilst performing for the public
at the Bournemouth air display
a real hero to his family
and red arrows display team too
flt lt john egging
shall always remembered what he could do best
as he served his country on fast jets
and as part of red arrows flying display team too
and gave 12 years loyal service
to RAF
and lost his life so tragically
whilst putting on a show
in front of the public and family
we must remember him
and wish his family well
in their time of need
as they go through
this dark spell
and hope and pray
he rests in peace too
and may his family remember all the good times they had with him
and may his memory
live on too
and may the red arrows get back flying again
very soon
god bless a hero
may the RAF remember you
