Would it happen in this day and age?<br />
These photos were taken in<br />
Adelaide by an Advertiser<br />
photographer at 11am on<br />
the 11th of November 1955,<br />
Remembrance Day.<br />
People step out of their cars,<br />
some halfway across the<br />
intersection, others stop midway<br />
while crossing the road,<br />
and stand in complete silence<br />
to honour the fallen.<br />
The photos convey the significance<br />
of the day back<br />
then and how solemn an<br />
occasion it was to both the<br />
city and to a nation, still with<br />
memories lingering from<br />
World War 2.<br />
