Some students sat rapt. Most howevâ€" er, listened politely, trying to access the experience of war but were denied its full weight. Students at Appleby College listened to various guest speakers Thursday morning, speakers who explained their experiences in an effort to give some depth and significance to Remembrance Day. Afraid to face the horror of what they lived and saw, unable or unwilling to live those chilling moments again, the speakers related their lesser experiences and failed to move the audience. Details such as dates, movements and travel stories abound, but the cruel, honest truth of death, in its many wartime forms, cannot be conveyed in a tale. Rather than face its stark reality veterans will talk of less painful things. ose people who harbour the most painful, personal memories of war and remembrance, find it almost impossible to relate their experiâ€" ences to those who were not there.
