Amazing photos of WW11 - civilwargal - 03-02-2008

These photos are so moving in their starkness. The one of the bodies covered in sheets awaiting burial remind us of the ultimate cost of war. It saddens me that future generations will probably not see these and will lose the understanding that war is not something you play on your X-Box. I still remember the first time I saw the footage of Normandy and the bodies rolling in the surg. It was very sombering. Now, we cant even show a picture of a flag draped casket on telelvision. Very sad that we have become so politically correct we can't honor these peoples memories because its "anti american"
