Manchester New Hamphire World War One

i have found many wwI statues now. not really seeking them out. happen'd on the one that sits in New Orleans. made a wee movie of it and put it up on YouTube (search sharappa). a couple people thought i was making fun of the war as i sang a ditty. SO i got comments on my YouTube (you can go see, really). "if you can't make fun of wars, we should just stop having them" say I.
this shot was taken in Manchester New Hampshire. My mother died there. went for a couple of walks. it was like 20 degrees, but it was a dry cold. this tribute lives in the town square. i must have walked by it a hundred times when i lived near to it. ha, who reads plaques as a 12 yr old?

my mother died, i walked over from the funeral home to the Straw School. there are photos in the lobby of when this was a school. most of these photos were taken 60 years ago. The people i met in the building were looking at a very Old man.
