The barbed wire around the concrete pole, it reminds me about concentration camps, but I am not very firm, about such camps in Greece...?

BTW, I do not like the dressing style, the visitors wear, such a place needs a more decent dress, to show a little respect, at least to the victims.

gerhard2, after all these years, still angry about your former homeland...

I feel very sorry for you, very honest, Veteran, and I hope, your new homeland is the best place on planet earth, for you.

"Heimweh", is it for you, sometimes...?

* It needs time, and patience, to scan old photos, but it is worth the effort, and I know, what I am talking about, as a long-time photo collector.

A wartime memorial - what happened here? Hmm...? It is the Griechenland (Greece) banner, but this is not the Fallschirmjaeger memorial at Kreta (Crete). Another small hint would be very helpful, Herr Roadking...? I think, it is memorial for german war crimes, somewhere in Greece, am I totally wrong...

Did you ever encounter "real" veterans, not the loud-mouthed veterans?

Our friend Rudi, he shared , and he wrote, to the best of his knowledge, conc. his "career", as a tanker.

What more does it need...?
