For ‘Remembrance Day’/’Armistice Day’/”Veteran’s Day” 2023, I Give YOU “Eric Bogle’s” Haunting “The Green Fields Of France” (Where The Poppies Grow).

This song, from 1971, is about WW I — & all the young men who died during that v. cruel war.

I like to bring it to people’s attention on a regular basis, around the time of ‘November 11‘, because it SO CAPTURES what it is all about.

Please listen to it. It is haunting.
