Happened may years ago, but still makes you silent, reflective and haunted. 

Did a blog about a trip thru Halifax, Nova Scotia cemetary that is another experience for the family to quietly take in. Blog with some neat images here.... http://activerain.com/blogsview/73186/Titanic-grave-site-in  . To the left is a monument to World War II participants.  When you see monuments, or observe milestones of something proud, tragic or that represents loss of life, you have to stop and count your blessings and put everything in perspective.  We live in a fast paced world, and work hard at our occupations, raising a family and contributing to our area.  But there needs to be a time of silence, reflection and perspective to make all of it make sense and sink in.  What moves you this way in your area of the planet?

The people whose sacrifices are commemorated in the war memorials were among those who allowed us to live in a free country today...

Right you are Brian. My dad was a tail gunner on a B-17 and have so much pride in him and my two veteran brothers too.
