The service on Tuesday, November 11, marked 90 years since the end of World War One, and paid respects to the 69 Bordon servicemen that have died in battle.
Bordon Royal British Legion secretary, Steve Johnson said: "It was a very nice service and we had a good crowd turnout. War veterans from the area were strongly represented – there was quite a crowd of former-soldiers there.
"We always hold a Remembrance Day service in Bordon, but this was a particularly important one, marking 90 years since the end of the First World War."
A two-minute silence was observed to remember that on the 11th day, of the 11th month at the 11th hour, the guns fell silent on the Western Front in France and Belgium.
"It was very moving." added Mr Johnson. "This is a very important service for the people of Bordon because of the strong connection between the Army and the town."
One hundred chairs were arranged in front of the war memorial, in Ennerdale Road, but they were soon full up, with the rest of the crowd standing under a specially erected marquee.
Former town councillor Nick Dawes played the traditional Last Post on the bugle.
Wreaths and crosses were laid by local school children and civic dignataries, including Whitehill town mayor Bill Wain.
Mr Johnson said:"It was fantastic to see so many young people there. And anyone that wants to lay a wreath at the memorial is welcome to anytime.
The service was conducted by Rev James Aitchinson. The weather remained dry for the service, but strong winds meant extra weight was needed to keep the marquee down.
