As the Island marks Armistice Day today the Chief Minister says more needs to be done to highlight the Island’s involvement in conflict.
The Isle of Man will mark the 100th anniversary of the First World War next year.
Official records show that 82 per cent of the male population of military age enlisted in the war effort – that’s over 8,000 men.
A working group has been established to help coordinate commemorative efforts.
Allan Bell says not enough people realise the impact the war had on the Island:
Commissioners vote against selling cherished number plate
Armed police detain man
Independent inspection of Manx Care may start next year
Part of TT course to close for a week
New emergency preparedness event after first's success
