Hi Ant. I just feel that some things in life are so terrible that to forget would be dishonor the memory of all the victims , like saying "what you went through doesn't matter anymore, we've moved on from it"... Having said that, in time it will become less of a memory, relegated to the history archives that children will learn about without emotion attached. But for now the 2 world wars , especially WW2 is still recent, many many people are still alive that lived during that war, therefore it is still an emotive occasion of rememberence.
