LOCKERBIE MEMORIAL

So moving,this memorial brought tears to my eyes, seeing all the names of those who lost their lives when PAN AM 103 was blown up over Lockerbie, killing all on board and eleven residents of Lockerbie.
Nice capture of this lovely memorial! When did that happen?

@bjywamer. It was on December 21st 1988, when the plane was blown up by Libyan terrorists. Debris was spread across several miles, some of which crashed into houses in Lockerbie, causing a huge fire and crater. 11 residents were killed. There is a small memorial to them where some of the debris landed.

That is such a moving memorial. To see the names all written there. I remember that December evening so well. That flight flew over our farm ten minutes before!
We were right under the flight path.

I went to this a number of years ago with a minibus full of schoolgirls. Not one of them left with dry eyes. I felt the emotion too.
