Haunting War Cemeteries Send Powerful Message

Torch that would have been spectacular. I was in Singapore in June and Manila in May touring around areas in both cities sites that were from WW2 which has left lasting impressions. But the one place I will always remember is the Allied POW Cemetries around the Bridge on the Kwai in North Western Thailand
