World War I memorial and cemetery for allied troops in Arras.
You cannot travel far in this part of France without seeing World War I memorials large and small. The graveyard and memorial in Arras was especially moving.
I was able to go to the Cathedral in Reims (another Notre Dame) and meditate on Uncle Frank Denham for a few minutes. He is not forgotten.
The Tour television coverage in France includes many quiet moments with the helicopter camera hovering over World War I memorials. I hope the coverage in the US is doing the same.
My Grandfather was stationed in Paris during the war. I have a wonderful picture of him standing by the Arche de Triomphe. 🙂
