THE generations will be united on Sunday as they gather at war memorials across the district to pay their respects and mark Armistice Day.

Remembrance Sunday coincides this year with Armistice Day, the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, when the peace treaty was signed between the Allies and Germany to cease hostilities on the Western Front and end World War I.

Flags will be lowered and the Two Minute Silence will be respected across the district as veterans and members of the Armed Forces remember their fallen comrades, and the rest of the district gives thanks for their heroic contributions.
