There are 45,000 bricks laid in the sidewalks leading to the museum. Each one tells a story of a man or woman in every branch of the military who served during WWII. I loved reading some of the names and what battle they fought in. For my rainbow orange today.
What an amazing accomplishment to lay all these slabs, each one different to the other ! And what a sad reminder of all these brave men and women! Thanks for sharing.
Amazing installation I spent ages just studying this small area, It would take me ages to walk this walk, they have a path of remembrance at the International Bomber Command Memorial with the names of those lost in bomber command laid by the relatives, out of respect I have read every single one over a few visits and they are still adding more:)
