Lest we forget: Remembrance Sunday

This Sunday morning, there is an official ceremony at Hong Kong's Cenotaph, Statue Square, Central. The ceremony includes two minutes' of silence starting at 11am.

From my mother's sleep I fell into the State,
And I hunched in its belly till my wet fur froze.
Six miles from earth, loosed from its dream of life,
I woke to black flak and the nightmare fighters.
When I died they washed me out of the turret with a hose.
-- The Death of the Ball Turret Gunner, Randall Jarrell

Yes, it is Remembrance Sunday -- the nearest Sunday to Remembrance Day/Armistice Day (11 November).
