\"They were soldiers\

...yesterday those Belizeans who fought in World Wars 1 and 2 were honored for their military service at a veteran's ceremony at the Memorial Park. Prime Minister Hon. Said Musa, the Governor General Sir Colville Young, and Brigadier General Cedric Borland were among those who laid wreaths at the monument to the ex-servicemen. After the wreath laying, the veterans lined up to put down small crosses like a mini "Flanders fields." Remembrance or poppy day as it is known is celebrated throughout the Commonwealth on November 11th, the day upon which World War 1 ended in 1918.
