A moving reminder of sacrifice

I had the privilege of seeing this art installation by Paul Cummins when I visited the Tower of London this summer. "Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red" is made up of 888,246 ceramic poppies, each one representing a fallen soldier from the British and Commonwealth military during World War I.  A moving visual reminder of the sacrifices made by so many.

To all who have served to protect the freedom of others, thank you.
