With the high profile of on going Operation Herrick ( Afghanistan) i feel it important to launch this years Poppy appeal in earnest.
I make NO appoligies for this , and i appeal to all Vectra-C members to support The poppy Appeal and Help For Heroes
Poppy
In Flanders' Fields
John McCrae, 1915
In Flanders' Fields the Poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place: and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders' Fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe;
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high,
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though Poppies grow
In Flanders' Fields.
Please think of all of our Brothers and Sisters of all faiths and creeds who have given their LIFE in support of this Nation.. and Comonwealth.
Thanks
STEVEH
