Shot at Dawn!
Shot at Dawn!
A memorial at the National Memorial Arboretum to all those shot for desertion or failure to follow orders in WWI. We would now recognise that many of these young men were suffering from the horrors of war and would have more to offer than a blindfold and a bullet. This particular location in the arboretum is the first to receive the new light of day.
