    Beautiful work.
    I'd point out the Vimy and all other memorial events, are "comemorations" for those involved with those events. There is nothing to "celebrate" about war....

    In Canada , it is considered a celebration and a commemoration. Vimy is seen as Canada's coming of age so it is poignant mark in our nations history. The battle of Vimy ridge holds a different meaning in different countries.
