POPS 'In Flanders Fields' McCrae later wrote of it: "I wish I could embody on paper some of the varied sensations of that seventeen days... Seventeen days of Hades! At the end of the first day if anyone had told us we had to spend seventeen days there, we would have folded our hands and said it could not have been done." One death particularly affected McCrae. A young friend and former student, Lieut. Alexis Helmer of Ottawa, had been killed by a shell burst on 2 May 1915. Lieutenant Helmer was buried later that day in the little cemetery outside McCrae's dressing station, and McCrae had performed the funeral ceremony in the absence of the chaplain. The next day, sitting on the back of an ambulance parked near the dressing station beside the Canal de l'Yser, just a few hundred yards north of Ypres, McCrae vented his anguish by composing a poem. The major was no stranger to writing, having authored several medical texts besides dabbling in poetry.

POPSTomorrow is Independence Day
A simple minded response from a less than adequate Home Secretary. The British People were promised that serious criminals from foreign backgrounds would be deported a-la Enoch Powell's predictions in the mid 1960's. How serious is sedition even though it has been unwisely removed from the Statute Book? The removal of this cancer has to take place now, rather than allowing the subjugation of the indigenous people of these islands. I am not preaching hatred but demanding that for once the indigenous people get the support that their sacrifices deserve. Unlike my politician, I know what it is like to stand against terrorists armed with nothing more than a wooden club. The IRA have failed dismally in obtaining their goals but have succeeded by fooling our political masters that they are sincere in their efforts for peace. It is piece they have won by deceit and lies. That piece is that part of the British Isles which has given more in blood than ought to have been asked from
