To answer Jack, your baby has mutated somewhat. Yes I know it is The Historic Military Vehicle Forum, but it has grown to be a multi faceted (Oh Sh*t, I'm going PC) forum opening many aspects of military history and conflicts to disscusion. Of a very high standard. Be Proud of it mate!
As for the actual sites of events and behaviour whilst there. Yes, I'm back on my little soap box. A peculiarity of the United Kingdom is that the borders have stayed stable for centuries, and no armed invader has walked the land since 1066. The respect is for the memory of those who served and sacrificed. As for personal feelings, we are all diffrent. I have no hatred of German people, but would never be happy wearing a uniform of the Third reich, and whilst I agree each conflict needs at least two sides. I am still uncomfortable about Third Reich displays. This is due to my upbringing, and I have to live with it.
There is a lot of diffrence in attitude to those who regard a place as sacred because blood was shed for it, and those to whom it is a place you played, grew up, work and look to the future.
