    Good for him, and those who help him.

    Gotta say it, the Euros take better care of our boys, from the graves I saw in Canada.

    When I went to that military cemetery to get those photos you needed a while back, I was actually impressed with how well the grounds were kept. The graves, not so much. There was a lot of moss and dirt on them.

    Since then, there is a Remembrance day tradition that schools around here perform - "No Stone Left Alone". Since then, things look a lot cleaner.

    I guess that Generation X was so far removed from war that they didn't understand the significance. Now the Millennials are taking the torch.
