hi nikonpup. your research has probably covered the arboretum in greater depth photographically than me but having covered the whole area it was the "shot at Dawn" monument i found most painfull. such a waste of young lives.

Thank you Brighamuk for posting these especially the Airborne Forces Memorial - having spent 12yrs serving in the British Airborne Forces this is a special memorial for those who have served and paid the ultimate price (I personally lost 22 comrades during 9 operational tours of duty so always remember their sacrifice and consider it an honour to have known and served with them!).
