Unknown Warrior

:) This remembrance day is a special one in New Zealand.
Last week an unidentified New Zealand soldier, killed in action in WW1, was disinterred from his war grave in France. 'Our Boy' was brought home with sombre ceremony to be placed in a special tomb at the National War Memorial as New Zealand's unknown warrior. He was accorded a state funeral with full military honours, and reinterred at 11.00 local time. :)

At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them.
