Completely agree with that, we did and it was certainly something to remember, and think about.

Another place to visit if any one is a yank basher, is there cemetery near Cambridge. For our freedom we owe a lot, i just wish people would just take a minute of there time just to think what these people went through.I had a conversation with my mother a few weeks back, [both of my parents were in there early teens during WW2] she told me of her uncle, who was never found , he was a copper opening a public shelter when it took a direct hit, this took place in south shields.

When I took my children a good few years back we stumbled across a german cemetry,you enterd through a door way which wouldnt have been a miss in Bavaria,but what a suprise the cemetry held,besides christian crosses for german soldiers there was lots of Stars of David for the Jewish German Soldiers,very moveing considering the attitude taken by the Second WW.
