What like… England and Germany?

It’s simply a case of paying respects and remembering the sacrifices made by our forefathers.

It's really not that deep and anyone who attempts to turn it into a divisive issue needs to have a word with themselves, in my opinion.

I have dual nationality. My great-uncle was shot for being part of the plot to kill Hitler in 1944. There was a film made about it starring Kenneth Branagh.
