"The Pity of War"
#OTD 18 March 1893 Soldier/Poet #WilfredOwen is born in #Oswestry #Shropshire. A short life as many were, cut short by #WW1, but what a gift he gave the world!

Armistice Day, also known as Remembrance Day, falls on 11 November every year and marks the pivotal day when World War One ended; 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month, 1918.

As we remember on #ArmisticeDay I am always drawn to this as the day that Susan Owen #WilfredOwen's mother was informed of his untimely death. I cannot imagine the emotions she must have felt as the bells were ringing out for the end of #WW1.

To help mark #VEDay75 I have created a series of portraits of WWII veterans. Like many people of my generation, I am increasingly aware of the bravery of those involved in WWII. I wanted to pay tribute to their sacrifice and courage. #VEDay2020 #WeWillRememberThem #VEDayAtHome
