I m 1 Let's Tok - Remember The servicesare over, the cenotaphs empty, the veter ans a now home, their medals put away for another year.The ramn ar the wind blow on the ionely wreaths laid but two days ago. Peop and cars pass by, oblivious, it Is simply part of the iandscape no% oid history brought to a dim iight once a year. What wili happen, some veterans wonder, when we are gone WIIl anyone remnember us, wili anyone remember what ot generation went through? Will there even be a Remembrance De 10 or 20 years fromn now when ail who served In both world war are gone? To whom shall the torch be passed? That question was answered for me on Monday when 1 attende two very different Remembrance Day services, at two ver different schools. The fIrst was at Andrea's high school. She ha called us Sunday aftemoon and said that she was directing thi service and could we corne? So Monday at -9 a;m. found us in hailway outside a gym, There is an energy ln a high school that i unlike anywhere else. It Is the energy that cornes from the blrth o adulthood and the'realization that your Ilfe, your future, lies in you hands alone. J don't know quite what 1 expected. A band playing, Flander Fields, the familiar. What 1 got was quite dIfferent and completel wonderful. Using archivai footage from ai the Canadian confiicts film was played on a screen on stage, to the background music ol Schindler's List. Then came a voice of a woman in Oshawa describing her wartime expeiences In England. Hearing her voice, seeing those young faces on the screen, was a powerful moment. This was followed by three extremeiy well acted vignettes of a soldier retuming home from war, the realities that hîs familles faced, and then one about a boy leaming 0f his father's wartIme death. One could not help but he moved by the emotion and integrity in these performances. Then there were more film clips, some poetiy, a choir, Flanders FIeids and The Last Post We and many others wiped tears away as walked back out Into the light. From there we drove to Sarah's school for their Remembrance Day service. Sarah had been asked to read two poems for the Grade 3 students and had practiced aIl weekend so she would do a good job. We saw her on stage, looking very calm and composed. The only sign of nerves were ln her feet that were swinging back and forth at rapId speed. Boys and girls wearing their Scout or Guide uniforms came ln carrying flags whiie the whole school stood quietly. What Impressed me during this service was how quiet the children remained. They paid attention during the readings, the band and the junior choir singing Dona Nobîs Placem (Give Us Peace). For these children war is a story, a story. of their grandparents or even their great-grandparents -- except for those who have fled War-tom ilands to corne to. Canada. As Sarah read her poems, 1 thought of my grandfathers, both long dead. One received a Military Cross for bravery, but coul' d neyer talk about what happened. The other was gassed as a medic and became a psychiatrist to heal the wounded minds he saw. i thought of my three great uncles who died in the First World War and who neyer had the chance of lfe. 1 saw them ïail together, ln my minds eye, watching Sarah, iistening to her and seeing that they were flot forgotten. So thank you, Andrea, thank you, Sarah, on behalf of the ones whose voices were lost so long ago. You remembered and sn
