How to use "Commemorations" in context?
As we reflect upon the Remembrance ceremonies conducted throughout the Commonwealth we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who have fought and died in wars and peacekeeping missions. Indeed, the outpouring of grief and commemoration observed throughout the Commonwealth on Armistice Day, November 11th are a solemn reminder of the cost of war. We honour those who have paid with their lives, or health, or loved ones, and remind ourselves that they are not forgotten. We remember the fallen, and their comrades who fought beside them, and we pledge to live each day honouring the sacrifices of all who have served this country and its people.
