The Last Post At The Menin Gate, Ypres.

[@wesmatron]

I witnessed this ceremony when I was 14. I'd never thought about war or sacrifice much until then. I don't mind telling you I was shaken and in tears for the next 6 hours. It blew my mind and rocked me to the core. Now I carry the memory of their deeds with me always. They shall not grow old as we who are left grow old. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them.

Thank you so much for the video. I visited the Meningate memorial to find my uncle's name. I found it at about 10ft high which was fortunate. I signed the book of rememberance where I found his name and address. I didn't manage to stay for the last post so your film completed my pilgimage. The whole experience was very moving and I am the only member of his family to find his name ( he had no known grave and was 17 years old)

Not just that, they are still out there somewhere, laying where they fell. I was proud to go there and remember them all.

Was there this summer and saw the ceremony. Precisely at the end of the silence there was a tremendous flash and a bang which I assumed was a cannon to mark the start of the silence. It was only when a torrential downpour started that we realised the timing was a complete coincidence, and that it was thunder and not a cannon. Once in a lifetime moment.

Lieu déjà impressionant mais la cérémonie du "Last Post" est particulièrement émouvante et depuis 1928 (sauf entre 40-45) tous les soirs à 20H00 les pompiers le sonnent et terminent par le "réveil". Nous n'oublions pas!

Wish the piper keep his slurs for concerts not this type of function. And before anyone questions that, I was regimental Bugler Drum Sgt to the London Irish Rifles and the London Regiments, and have been playing at war memorials like this with the Regiment all over France and Belgium with every tour, including playing at the Cenotaph for the Burma Star and the War Windows the day before Remembrance Day. Nice video thanks for posting

If anyone goes, go for the saturday Last Post as the other days dont have the pipes and the service is not as long!

Lest we forget, shame the youth of today don't understand the sacrifice soon many made so they could be free

[@Scarred_Piper]

[@rockoboy34]

Lest we forget, just a shame people forget to easy

[@clam502]

[@Scarred_Piper]
