I always watch the Festival of Remembrance (unless on Ops and don't get the chance) and it always brings a tear to the eyes.

Makes me proud to be British and a member of HM Forces.

RIP to all who can't make it thanks to the ultimate sacrifice.

Just watching this - feeling very proud. I left the Army this year and will be attending church tomorrow to remember friend I have lost. Is it ok to wear my medals with civvies (suit). I feel that civvies don't see enough of the army and I feel very proud to have won my medals. Can anyone let me know or point me to where I may find out?

Thanks

 

[Wee_Jock_Poopong]

Yes you can wear them with your suit.

IMO disgraceful if you DON'T! You earned em, you wear em! I'll wear mine and I've been out longer than I was in, now!

Just watched it, eyes very watery throuhout. Very moving.

 

[LurganCrow]

Yes you can wear them with your suit.

Suit? You some sort of oroficer sir?

You earned em, you wear em with pride - on your denim jacket if you want. The Queen didn't send me a chit with mine, saying: "Only wear them with your SUIT, young man!"

Glad its not only me

Lucky that mean looking "Monkey" on the end didn't see him - he'd be tabbing by now!

Oops. Sorry if I hurt you with my touchiness. No offence was meant.

In fairness, I think he was praying! I don't much care for the man's politics, but don't doubt his sincerity on the religious front.

Yes. I agree. I said the same to the missus when he was shown.

Probably praying he wouldn't have to look anyone in the eye- for my money the cnut was asleep!
