While they may realize that, the position of the Legion is that we want kids to be in school. We don't want them out of school. Having served for 23 years here in Ottawa, I did many Remembrance Day assemblies at my kids' school where I was a member of the military. I came in uniform, medalled up, and away we went. We explained the significance of Remembrance Day.
Where you capture the kids is in a school assembly. The school assembly where I was had about 600 kids, and you had them all there and you discussed basically what Remembrance Day was all about. What we want is to capture those kids in school, not to have them out of school.
