Default Description

The memorial also has an explanation of what its meant to depict.

I can almost see the dispair in the older mans eyes (the WW1 veteran) passing the Lee Enfield to his son freshly back from basic training. The old man probably thinking he had fought the worst war for nothing as he has had to see his son go off to war. Apart from the land almost breaking him through the depression and surviving in a subsistence living. To watch the rise of even nastier dictators wanting to impose their domination over the world.
