Any time dad and I walk past the town's war memorial, I always dislike that the council allows cars to park right up in front of it (free car park right across the road).
Massive blue truck within a foot of the memorial board, seems terribly thoughtless & disrespectful to me.

I've scanned the war memorial at Burntwood Memorial Institute into #Scaniverse.
I spent a little more time on the filming and I particularly like how you can zoom in on the names and on the collection of painted stones at the back.

My Mango velomobile parked next to an information sign about the shooting down of a Flying Suitcase (Handley Page Hampden AE185) by a Flying Pencil (Dornier Do 215).
This happened on the 18th of August 1941. At that time it was very clear that the Nazis were the bad guys.
There is information available in various places, including here:

Stonehaven's war memorial, sited in an imposing hilltop position overlooking the sea just to the south of the town.

The Canadian National Vimy Memorial, an amazing peice of sculpture on a huge scale, and a very poignant place to visit. A very fitting tribute to the fallen of WW1.

hint hint:. Lieutenant Colonel Vivian Bullwinkel would make for a very provoking backdrop for a non-vandal/peaceful protest.
After all, if Israeli-Government’s contempt towards Medical professionals and facilities in Gaza were universally applied during World War One and Two, nurses like Vivian would be dead along with her patients.

Vandalism and War memorials, my thoughts so far:
Vandalism as an expression of protest is a controversial one, but one that hard to condemn 100%.
In terms of International human rights, we all have a ‘right to expression’, ‘right to protest’ ‘right to civil disobedience’ and as last resort ‘right to rebellion’, all with the intent of having rights respected for enduring peace. (UNDHR)
On the scale of things, ‘vandalism’ can broadly fall between ‘right to expression and rebellion’. ‘Vandalism’ in terms of graffiti, where there is no material damage, falls somewhere between ‘right to expression and civil disobedience’. In the sense that no person is threatened or harmed by the expression, it is effectively ‘peaceful’.
When watching ‘expressions’ and ‘protests’ as bystanders, we need to then reflect on ‘Why are people resorting to this form of expression’ ‘what is happening or not happening’ etc. How does the inconvenience of a traffic jam or cleaning up graffiti stand in comparison to the injustice that is being protested?
From the perspective of Palestinians and those sympathetic, what is happening in Gaza is a matter of ‘Present-Future’, whereas the Vietnam war is a matter of ‘past’. So what is more important: The deaths occurring now or the memorial of deaths of a distant past?I question the effectiveness of ‘expressions’ targeting memorials. There are many different ways to use memorials as a backdrop of protest to amplify a message. But not everyone is blessed with the education and creative thought - and shouldn’t be looked down on because they aren’t as PR savvy as someone else, like myself.
In contrast, the statements by ‘caretakers’ for such memorials call to question the relevance of the memorials. Afterall, the purpose of Public memorials is to remember the past so mistakes are not repeated in the present-future.
We cried, expressed, protested and committed acts of civil disobedience about the injustices of the Vietnam war and swore ‘Never again’. Where do we stand on Gaza-Israel, while we provide material and morale support as a Nation-State? How can we condemn Palestinians for crying, expressing, protesting and committing acts of civil disobedience today?

Here’s a summer road trip to add to the list. 🏄 🚙 🦘🌊 🏊♀️
The ‘Great Ocean Road’ is it one of Victoria’s, indeed Australia’s, most well known international tourist attractions, dotted as it is with beautiful surf & swimming beaches, but you may be surprised to know, the road itself constitutes Australia’s longest War Memorial. In episode 56 we talk about how the construction came about.
