1.)How does your community(school, town, country) select to remember World War II?

Our community has different and unique styles in remembering world war II. One of it is by celebrating the memories in world war II. Another is by remembering the people who risked their lives just for the people and the country. Some people in our community including my grandmother dedicate some prayers in those who died in those crucial days. My grandmother prays for the soul of her brother who died in the death march. There is really a lot to remember in world war II. We, too should help remember it.

2.) Do you know anyone who was involved in some aspect of the World War II? If so, what is their connection? If possible, can you send a picture?

Actually, I don’t know anyone who was involved in some aspects of the world war II but I could give some places that were involved. One of the places that was involved was Bataan. The death march started in Bataan. That’s why Bataan was involved. Another is Capas, Tarlac. This is where the death march ended. Those are just some places that were involved in the world war II.

3.) Is there anything else you would like to add?

Before I close this, I would just like to remind everyone that we, as people should remember the past. We should remember what others did just for the sake of our country. We should learn to remember them by celebrating, offering some prayers, etc. remember that without those people who risked their lives we might not have this so-called “freedom”.
