It's good to hear things like that from folks outside our own country.<BR/><BR/>You're absolutely right about the value of having those testimonies visible to all. It's so important to reflect on these things occasionally!Jim Holmeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05869146736565695900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10748614.post-1148990805393208432006-05-30T08:06:00.000-04:002006-05-30T08:06:00.000-04:00The road I take to drive to work every day is very...The road I take to drive to work every day is very special: the milestones are not the regular ones but commemorative ones.<BR/><BR/>This road is named "Freedom Road" because it was massively used by the US forces when liberating the region where I live.<BR/><BR/>In some villages, where the milestone is in a good spot, they honor it with local and US flags, flowers and names of the KIAs of this place.<BR/><BR/>I feel glad to have visible testimonies of this kind so the sacrifices of the past are not condemned to oblivion (and, hopefully, the errors of the past not bound to be redone).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13987512594987806769noreply@blogger.com
