This will mean a lot to those with long years and even longer memories. We must never forget the sacrifices these men, women , horses, dogs and pigeons made, and of course all the families waiting at home …….. wondering.
Having visited the World War 1 trenches and memorial sites in France, personally I found them to be a very sobering site, and when you see how close the enemy were, your mind wanders to what the troops were thinking at the time. Loved ones, home a hot meal, dry feet and of course trying not to get killed..
Take a stroll through these cemeteries , and I can guarantee it will be etched in your memory for ever.
These places can be very moving. i particularly recommend the Canadian Memorial at Vimy.
