9,000 Fallen Soldiers Etched into the Sand on Normandy Beach to Commemorate Peace Day on September 25, 2013
 










This past weekend British artists Jamie Wardley and Andy Moss accompanied by numerous volunteers, took to the beaches of Normandy
with rakes and stencils in hand to etch 9,000 silhouettes representing fallen people into the sand. Titled The Fallen 9000, the piece is meant
as a stark visual reminder of the civillians, Germans and allied forces who died during the D-Day beach landings at Arromanches on June
6th, 1944 during WWII. The original team consisted of 60 volunteers, but as word spread nearly 500 additional local residents arrived to
help with the temporary installation that lasted only a few hours before being washed away by the tide.
 





ooroo

Greetings to you from Townsville, where the weather today was beautiful.
Tomorrow it will be perfect.
