Village residents today gathered to remember the service and sacrifice of the Armed Forces from Britain and the Commonwealth, particularly those from Titchfield.
Following a shortened Sunday Service at St Peter’s Church, the congregation processed the short distance to the Memorial outside the Parish Rooms for an Act of Remembrance.
During the service the names of village residents who have lost their lives were read out by three serving members of the Armed Forces.
The Last Post was followed the two minutes silence, then, after the bugler sounded reveille, wreaths were laid by representatives of The Royal British Legion, The Armed Forces and village organisations.
Before the end of the service Kohima Epitaph was read…
’When You Go Home, Tell Them Of Us And Say,
For Your Tomorrow, We Gave Our Today.'
