Picture?[edit]

There aren't any pictures available (that comply with Wikipedia regulations)? I think they would make a nice addition to this article. CanadianMist 19:31, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unnescesary Exclamation[edit]

The article has 2 unnescesary exclamation pints, was wondering whether this was on purpose, since it seems to draw away from the seriousness, and sombreity of the page (since it is a memorial.)
