Communities throughout Moray will stop to reflect on the sacrifices of those called to arms past and present a week on Sunday.
A total of 51 services and wreath-laying ceremonies will take place on Remembrance Sunday, November 8.
Lord-Lieutenant of Moray Grenville Johnston said: “Remembrance Sunday is the day on the year when we remember all those who have given their lives in World Wars I and II, but also other conflicts and it is an opportunity for everyone to give a little bit of their time to remember these sacrifices.
“I would hope that the people of Moray — as they always have done in the past — will be there a week on Sunday to record this very special day.”
Major General Seymour Munro added: “It’s very important we remember those individuals who gave their lives that we now enjoy our lives in some degree of freedom and happiness.
“Whether it is very special individuals or the bigger conflicts we are remembering from the past or all that those brave soldiers, sailors and airmen who serve all around the world do today, it is good that at least one day a year, we pause to reflect and thank them all.”
