War Cemetery
My parents live in Mook, close to Nijmegen. In the second world war many lives were lost in this area.

It’s amazing the head stones are still perfectly straight. It is a beautiful cemetery.

I'm not sure what the engravings stand for. However, it most likely is not their country of origin as 297 of the 322 soldiers came from the UK -
