PRINTED AT THE LEGION POPPY FACTOR!, 
EMPIRE FIELD OF REMEMBR 
THE 
The objects for which the Field of Remembrance has been established by the Poppy Fact 
are :—(1) To honour and meditate upon the memory of the Fallen by planting a Cross or Popj 
(2) To provide a means whereby relatives of the Fallen can express their remembrance at a sn 
cost; (3) To help by the sale of poppies and crosses the badly war disabled men working in ^ 
Poppy Factory ; (4) To help distressed ex-service men and their dependents throughout the com. 
by augmenting the Funds of the British Legion Relief Department. In the Field of Eemembrar 
in 1928 two crosses only were placed. One was " In Memory of Private Tommy Atkins ” and t 
other “ In Memory of Field-Marshal Earl Haig.’ 
Every year since the inauguration an increasing number of people visit the Field to remerr 
the sacrifices made during the war and many of these like to remember both the individual and t 
Regiment in whose ranks he served, and therefore a memorial plot is arranged for each Regime] 
The planning of the largest part of the Field has been based on the map of the United Kingdi 
in order to facilitate the placing of the Crosses j 
Last year several groups of those who served together and also representatives of organisatw 
met at the Field of Remembrance and stood together in silence for a few moments to remember tl 
Fallen Comrades. Arrangements for a convenient time can be made if desired, so that this corpoi 
act of remembrance can be made without overcrowding. ? 
Opportunity has been provided for various associations, such as the “ Old Contempts s " t 
British Red Cross Society and the Scouts to remember their Fallen. The Memorial to Lord' Ha 
and those who have died in the service of the Empire since the war will be found on the left of the n 
entrance. 
In the centre of the large Poppy Cross in the middle of the Field is placed a genuine Cross fi 
the grave of an unknown British soldier in France. The space round this Cross will be reserved 
Crosses placed in memory of unknown soldiers. By arrangement with the Imperial War Graves Co 
mission these Remembrance Crosses will be replaced on the graves of unknown soldiers in Frar 
Other Crosses after being removed from the Field are placed in the precincts of the Abbey for sou 
months ; they are then burnt and the ashes scattered on the graves in France 
A Crown of Poppies has been placed at the foot of the Cross shewing where the Crosses of I 
Majesty the Queen and other members of the Royal Family have been placed. Here also is the Poj 
planted by H.R.H. The Prince of Wales in the hope that all who could would follow his example. 
You are asked to remember that Canon Carnegie has most kindly allowed the planting of the Fi 
of Remembrance on what is the old grave-yard of St. Margaret’s Church. He requests everyone 
keep off the grass as much as possible and to remember that this is consecrated ground. 
It is moving and inspiring to see men, women and children planting their Crosses cr Popj 
in this hallowed lawn nestling in the shadow of the historic Abbey. The Fallen have been remembf 
by Fields of Remembrance throughout the Empire and it is hoped that every town and village 
remember their Fallen so that not one of the million dead will be forgotten. 
Every evening the Field will be illuminated by searchlights. 
LET US REMEMBER THEM TO-DAY
