The commonwealth war cemetery


   After 3 hours we have a stop at the Commonwealth War Cemetery which is near Monte Casino, it is the 70th anniversary this year. There were 4265 named that were killed in the cemetery and another 4000 un named 




   Rows and rows, very moving





   There was a piper here today with the British 


   The monastery up on the hill was bombed by the Germans 


   The Australian embassy has laid a wreath for the 70th anniversary



    The British are hear to remember for the anniversary
