On 11 November, the scouts of the SA Army Intelligence Corps formally held a remembrance ceremony for their fellow scouts who have died.

Remembrance Day, informally known as Poppy Day or known to some as Armistice Day, is known worldwide as a day of remembering and honouring the soldiers who have fallen in the line of battle. This day was inaugurated by King George V in 1919, after the First World War.
11 November marks the end of hostilities of World War 1 in 1918. These hostilities formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

Members of the SANDF, the SA Army Intelligence Corps and all Military Veteran organisations pledge this day in memory of all South African men and women who died in combat, military exercises, natural calamities and military-related accidents.

This ceremony is held annually at the Intelligence Corps cenotaph where flower wreaths are laid for the fallen soldiers. At exactly 11:00 the bell was rung in remembrance.

‘The SA Army Intelligence Corps, in memory of those martyrs, once again makes a commitment to uphold the constitution of the country, the mission of the SANDF and, above all, to serve the nation with pride and honour, until what they have lived and died for is accomplished.’
