Good to see them honoring the Polish after all they did for the allies.

I used to drive past this memorial every so often when I used to work along the A40, good to see that it is being renovated in time to honour the role the Poles played in the BoB.

I agree with all the above, it should always be kept in good condition - lest we forget.
