Thx CaptO, well maybe one day you'll make it to this side of the pond and we could meet at one of those battlefields over here, that were great .
I would like to visit the battle areas in the pacific like Iwo Jima and others, the GI's had more then one D-DAY over there, these Jab's were a fierce adversary .
You're right about learning as much as possible from a battlefield, I do not know how I should express it but I think you get a better feeling if you know what has happened where you stand.
CaptO do you know about the battle of Verdun? Wednesday I'll go with a friend of mine for the whole day to Verdun and maybe we'll make to the Us. cemetery of Saint Mihiel near Thiaucourt it's +/- 48 km from Verdun (30 miles) I'll shoot a lot of photos .
Here's a link from that battle http://www.worldwar1.com/dbc/stmihiel.htm
You don't have any photos from your visit at Okinawa? I would like to see them.
So have a nice sunday you all.
Martin
