It's very sad, indeed. I only quite recently discovered where my mother's brother's grave is in France. He'd been buried somewhere else in 1943, then later, much later, moved to a new German Military cemetary. Unfortunately I found this out after my mother's death. The poem reflects the horrors of war. The photographs reminded me of the families, like mine, not knowing.

Beautiful in English thank you. Poignant and haunting and still (sadly) fitting for our times.
