Hee - I debated on giving this post the title 'Cool!' because it is cool, but it just didn't seem the proper tone.
I expect I'll get sniffly during the actual event. I went to Beaumont Hamel a few years ago. My great-uncle is buried there and I was the first family member ever to visit his grave. The poor lad was only 20 when he died and he'd been buried there for nearly a century. *sigh* Sometimes, there just aren't any words.
