It's easy to stand with the crowd . It takes courage to stand alone

It was very moving and special to me because I stood on the place where my uncle lost his life. I would have loved to have done it years ago when my dad and my gran were here. It must have been so awful for relatives to get the message that there loved ones were missing in action.
There's no place like home ......
