Menin Gate - Leper - Belgium
Every night at 8.00 pm under the Menin Gate in Leper, call it respect, reverence or just a plain tribute; the town comes to a halt in a moving ceremony.
Members of the regular buglers from the local volunteer Fire Brigade parade under the memorial arch to play the Last Post in a fitting tribute to the fallen of World War I.
I was amazed and grateful to see the large number of youngsters attending. |
