I visited the @CWGC Thiepval Memorial a few years ago. A majestic, stately memorial that stands with great dignity on the Somme skyline. Very moving to look out across the fields from under the arches.

<div class="rsshub-quote">
CommonwealthWarGraves:  91 years ago, The Thiepval Memorial was unveiled.
The Memorial to the Missing of the Somme bears the names of more than 72,000 officers and men of the United Kingdom and South African forces who died in the Somme sector before 20 March 1918 and have no known grave.

RT @rgaillimhe: He was a Constable working within photography branch at the time. Two men were convicted of the murder.
He was also a friend and colleague of a neighbour of mine, who told me that he was a gentleman and a very talented photographer.

This new memorial commemorating soldiers of the First and Second World Wars at @LeicesterTigers is majestically impressive, and poignantly is built to face in the direction of Ypres.
Credit to all involved in making it happen.

66,755 Canadians lost their lives in active service to protect us

Yet wearing masks in certain settings to protect others is too much of a sacrifice for the losers.
