Do the figures relate to the scramble for bog rolls at the start of the pandemic? :)

I think there are statues in America and they after all were American soldiers.


but the cenotaph is to remember all those who gave their lives..
and most local war memorials remember the dead from that town/ district... its not ever crossed my mind that blackmen are excluded.

So only 548 lost their lives ?
Compare that to the 1000's of British white men who gave their lives for them.
You want a statue for them?

They’re not excluded.. there’s a memorial to the 700 or so Americans who died at Slapton Sands.. but the tank is not black, so obviously put there by some racist or other.

An egg? Don’t know where(if) you went to school, or just haven’t covered it yet. But you may mean embryo. It’s anybody's guess..
