Will take a peek.
Sunday, I walked up to the RAF memorial miles from nowhere on Dartmoor. Moved to see around 70 people there at 11am. One read out a short poem. A few others layed reefs. Another held up their radio, so we could all hear the chimes of Big Ben, the poiniet silence and the last post. All totally spontaneous just a group of strangers sharing a common need to say thank you to those who gave there lives sonthat we could live ours.

It was a very moving documentary.

If you enjoyed that, suggest this documentary on the end of WW1 is even more gripping

A good documentary - very informative. It certainly showed how the top brass looked upon the combatants on both sides.
