    If you have ever been to France the one thing which stands out are the many war monuments and cemeteries. Here is a youtube video of the 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion monument in Varaville, France.

    This video shows the Ranville Military Cemetery where many 1st Can Paras are buried. Most Americans and Canadians never get to see these cemeteries.
