Hundreds gathered in downtown Chatham on Remembrance Day to honor Canada’s military veterans, acknowledging those who have served and the ones who made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom.
Citizens lined King Street to view the march from Royal Canadian Legion Br. 642 to the Chatham cenotaph for the ceremony, which included the laying of wreaths and poppies.
Two minutes of silence were observed at 11 a.m. marking the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month when the Armistice was signed in 1918 to end the First World War.
A flyover of four planes also took place during the event.
