French and British Crowd Watching as a Union Flag and Tricolore Are Removed to Reveal a Memorial Statue, 1920. '...a time of civvies mingled still with khaki, of great unveilings...when, on a hundred freshly bloodied battlefields, marshals and generals and brass hats laid enough stones to build a fair-sized house. While in a thousand cities and villages across long-suffering Europe, other VIPS pulled away flags from Great War obelisks, Great War plaques, and Great War cenotaphs, stones symbolising flesh and blood, memorials to be remembered. Heaven knows there were are enough of them to remember. Millions, the flower of nations, whole generations that, if things had been different, might have lived for greater and bigger things'. From "Time To Remember - The Plunge Into Peace", 1920 (Reel 1); events of 1920 - weddings, women's rights, industrial unrest and problems in Ireland
