Kirkcudbright church. It is like a cathedral inside! A lovely #WW1 carved war memorial #lestweforget #Woodensday #ceilingsonsunday

Glowering skies add to the poignancy of the war memorial at Port Sunlight today #WW1 #lestweforget

#memorialmonday detail from stained-glass window commemorating the Somme, Archibald Keightley Nicholson. Church of St Mary the Virgin in Lesbury. Very unusually it appears to depict British and French troops together. A lovely memorial. #LestWeForget #WW1

Fantastic memorial chapel and windows representing “sacrifice “ and “victory” St Martin’s Church Brampton Cumbria #StainedGlassSunday #WW1 #LestWeForget

Remembering Elizabeth Annie Jones on #StDavid’sDay. She died aged 22 in Oct 1916 of TNT poisoning. She had worked at NEF Pembrey. Her mother Mary Anne Williams claimed compensation for her daughter's death. Her name is on the local war memorial #LestWeForget #WomensHistory womenandwar.wales

In other countries (especially Belgium, France or the UK) the Great War is clearly more present than the Second World War. In German history, both wars are the proof for the downfall of mankind but - perceived - the cruelties of WW2 are dominating here in Germany due to our ashaming historical legacy and millions of inexpressible crimes against humanity.

Apart from that, when walking through Hamburg-Rahlstedt, I found this memorial to the fallen heroes of World War I by coincidence, getting the proof that the utter sacrifice of brave men of all nations (and German soldiers) in the first World War hasn't been forgotten as well.

Lest we forget.
