- Battle of the Somme At approx. 7:05am on 1st July 1916, the men of the 36th (Ulster) Division advanced, alongside many others, with bravery & sacrifice during the first day of the Battle of the Somme. We remember their courage. We honour their sacrifice. We will remember them.

- 339 Orange members murdered. No convictions in the overwhelming majority of cases. No apology or remorse from the terrorists. No early release for the families still grieving. No letters of comfort for those left behind. No fairness, no justice. Never forgotten.
- As the 1st July draws to a close, a lone piper plays 'The Battle of the Somme' by Pipe Major William Lawrie (1881-1916). Lest we forget.
