Hitler did indeed fight in world war one but then lost his chance of being respected in ceremonies such as this by what he then did.

yes cdog

We are honouring the soldiers who died fighting for their country
out of a sense of duty.

We are NOT honouring our politicians who started these wars.

We should honour the women who supported them, as well.

Because technology has moved on ie. bombing
Nowadays women and children also have to make the ultimate sacrifice
from WWII on.

Luckily, everyone who fought in WW1 has died, so we can honour them with a cheap photo-op for politicians rather than sticking another tenner in their weekly pensions. And judging by the row over which party leader wrote what on their wreaths, we can't even get that right.

I think that one of the things that has to happen for humanity to not be doomed is to realise that there isn't that much difference between some 18-year-old Englishman cowering in terror in a trench and some 18-year-old German cowering in terror in a trench. I have always considered WW1 to have been a colossal, tragic waste of human life on both sides.
