Reading it back following your message I wish to edit what I said:

The speeches where there appeared to be a rush to speak about servicemen and women were creepy because focus of speeches should have all been about Afgans. Of course part of the speeches should have been about the servicemen and women but Ben Jarvis talking about "honour to serve" was a creepy Americanism, on a day spent criticising America, and other speeches were much better.
