Silent city was forever grateful
IT'S the time when everyone from the oldest soldier proudly wearing his medals to the very youngest pay tribute to those who gave their lives in war.
Today's picture is a poignant scene of a young boy laying a wreath at the Cenotaph in Glasgow at the Armistice Day Ceremony 1948, while his mother proudly looks on.
With the Second World war still a very recent memory, many at the ceremony will have had all too vivid memories of the sacrifices made by millions of brave men and women.
