    Reveille – November 2020 Reveille – No.3 November 2020 The magazine of Preston & Central Lancashire WFA southribble-greatwar.com 1 Reveille – November 2020 In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie, In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields. John McCrae Cover photograph by Charlie O’Donnell Oliver at the Menin Gate 2 Reveille – November 2020 Welcome… …to the November 2020 edition of our magazine Reveille. The last few months have been difficult ones for all of us particularly since we are not able to meet nor go on our usual travels to the continent. In response the WFA has been hosting a number of online seminars and talks – details of all talks to the end of the year and how they can be accessed are reproduced within this edition. The main theme of this edition is remembrance. We have included articles on various War Memorials in the district and two new ones this branch has had a hand in creating. The branch officers all hope that you are well and staying safe. We wish you all the best for the holiday season and we hope to meet you again in the new year.

A hundred years ago, in a spirit of brotherhood, thousands of young soldiers from Great Britain and the countries of the Commonwealth came here to fight alongside us on our home soil. A century later, the scars left on the Somme still bear testimony to the battles of 1916, as do the commemorative sites which attest France’s gratitude to the 420,000 British soldiers who fell in battle, thousands of whom sacri- ficed their lives for this country. In the name of this shared history, whose echo still resonates across the landscape of the Somme, of the brothe- rhood of arms created in the horror of the trenches, and of the memory shared by our two countries, France has a duty to develop and protect the British monuments and cemeteries located in the Somme as well as to extend the warmest possible welcome to tourists visiting the region to reminisce the tragic events of the past century.
