Arc de Triomphe
Recognizing all who fought for France during World War I,
this darkened room on the top level of the arch is a quiet,
reverent place.
My grandfather (World War I) and my father
(World War II) both fought on French soil and survived
to share their stories.
I am remembering them
on our US Memorial Day.

The shadows in on this sculpture add to the reverence Genie.
A very arresting image. Appropriate when thinking about the impact of war.
God bless them.
Quite a dramatic image.
Beautiful image and a wonderful way to honor your family members on this holiday.
Cool. I have never been up there. I didn't know the men in your family served in France. You must be proud.
