All Soldiers Should Be Honoured

Ok I haven’t been around much the last couple of days been a bit busy with life, but this has been on my mind since I saw it on the news the other night. http://www.nbnnews.com.au/index.php/2012/11/09/push-to-honour-those-whove-served

Here in Australia those soldiers who are killed on peace keeping missions are not honoured by having their name added to the wall at the Australian War Memorial and I feel that it is just so wrong they are wearing the Australian uniform, they are still Australian Soldiers and they have died while serving and so they should be honoured http://www.awm.gov.au

It isn’t like the soldiers have a choice of where they serve they go where they are told and if they die where they are serving they should be honoured.

What is it like in other countries do you recognise and honour your peace keeping soldiers the same as you do those fighting in war zones?

Today is also Remembrance Day it is always observed on 11 November, regardless of the day of the week, and is not a public holiday; it is a time when people can pay their respects to the substantial number of soldiers who died in battle. Some institutions observe two minute’s silence at 11 a.m.
