After spending hours of total history immersion at The Battle of the Bulge WAR museum in Belgium, it was wonderful to stumble upon the Woods of PEACE forest.
Four thousand trees in the park, each tree representing a person. This is the spot of sacrifice, solemn intent to win at all cost, no matter the weather or other conditions. It is absolutely silent. There is no way to know what it was like to be a soldier who served here. Because of these brave soldiers, and their sacrifice, Europe is free.
For all who served, we honor you!
