On Wednesday 11th November 2009 my wife and I accepted an invitation to a service to mark the passing of the World War One Generation It was a most wonderful occasion to be invited to.
Those invited had to have a relation who had served in the first world war. My father served in that war and was at one of the first battles to take place at Nery in November 1914 and then Ypres and after all that survived the war.
The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh were also there .
