I think that is a key element of what these fine museums offer - hopefully to tell of the horrors of war rather than the glory of war, even though it involves sacrifice and bravery.Mark Hhttp://www.travel-wonders.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4446645565996377876.post-49634396844928854852010-05-04T15:48:38.954-07:002010-05-04T15:48:38.954-07:00It's important to see these things and to lear...It's important to see these things and to learn about war with accurate and informative depictions.

A belly gunner must have been a tense and nerve-racking role.<br /><br />@Heather: Australia stops more a minutes silence and passes poppies around on Nov 11 but the true war memorial day has evolved to April 25. I really enjoyed the usage of the latest audio visual techniques in portraying some concept of what these young men and women must have experienced - dignified and effective without being glorified or tasteless or nationalistic.Mark Hhttp://www.travel-wonders.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4446645565996377876.post-26099221308276159262010-04-30T14:13:21.462-07:002010-04-30T14:13:21.462-07:00For us in the UK it's Remembrance day on 11 No...For us in the UK it's Remembrance day on 11 November. I think the audiovisual presentation is a really great way to bring the experienceof war home to those who haven't experienced it directly. At the Imperial War museum I sat in an audio visual show where the voices, and sounds of war were projected all around me and it was very realisticHeather on her travelshttp://www.heatheronhertravels.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4446645565996377876.post-59430483311615255912010-04-29T11:46:01.240-07:002010-04-29T11:46:01.240-07:00I enjoyed Part Two of "Lest We Forget (Canber...I enjoyed Part Two of "Lest We Forget (Canberra, Australia).

As ou say, most of the bombers didn't make 10 missions, but he did more than 20 and lived to tell about it. Wonder photos and descriptions. I anxiously await your final chapter.BarbaraWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18337410101096439214noreply@blogger.com
