100th Anniversary of the Armistice

Hi All
Thought this plan from the College of Piping might be of interest. Pipers all over the world are called to play the tune 'When The Battle's O'er' at 6am, wherever in the world they are.
Excellent tribute in my opinion.
Cheers,
Alex

Alex,
This sounds like a fitting tribute. I have forwarded your post to Rhys who's currently posted with the Scots Guards in Cyprus and I'm sure the lads will be up for it.

When the battles Oér

What a magnificent tribute to the Pipers who fell. As a member of a Pipe Band for 50 years, I think this is a tremendous thing to happen. I conduct the services here at my local RSL in Tasmania, I will most certainly be mentioning this action in my speech on 11/11/18. Thank you for the information.

Best wishes Phil.
