巴约战争公墓
这个平静的公墓位于战争博物馆以西数百米,是诺曼底18个英联邦军队公墓中最大的。这里安息着来自英国和包括德国的其他10个国家的4848名士兵。街道对面是纪念1807名没有找到遗骸的英联邦展示的纪念碑,其顶部的题词:“曾被威廉征服的我们现在解放了征服者的祖国。”The Bayeux War Cemetery is the largest Second World War cemetery of Commonwealth soldiers in France, located in Bayeux, Normandy. The cemetery contains 4,648 burials, mostly of the Invasion of Normandy. Opposite this cemetery stands the Bayeux Memorial which commemorates more than 1,800 casualties of the Commonwealth forces who died in Normandy and have no known grave.
The cemetery grounds were assigned to the United Kingdom in perpetuity by France in recognition of the sacrifices made by the British Empire in the defence and liberation of France during the war. In addition to the Commonwealth burials, there are 466 graves of German soldiers.
Although there was not a particular battle fought in Bayeux itself, casualties were brought to this cemetery from around the region. This includes field hospitals and soldiers who died on Sword Beach.
The cemetery contains the Cross of Sacrifice or War Cross, designed by Sir Reginald Blomfield for the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC).
Queen Elizabeth II and President of France Jacques Chirac attended ceremonies at the cemetery on June 6, 2004, marking the 60th anniversary of the D-Day invasion. Queen Elizabeth II and President of France François Hollande attended ceremonies at the cemetery on June 6, 2014, marking the 70th anniversary of the D-Day invasion.

与英国在世界其他地方(比如缅甸)的二战公墓类似,这里同样是绿色的草坪、方形的小墓碑,白色大理石中央十字架,以及嵌在十字架内的苏格兰双手巨剑。公墓的特色在于马路对面的纪念碑,那是为1800名尚未找到尸骨的烈士们建立的,上面用拉丁文写着“我们是征服者威廉的后裔,现在前来解放我们的国家”,相隔千年的两场战事就这样在巴约奇妙的联系了一起。

去巴约战争公墓是个意外,这里埋葬的很多都是英联邦国家的战士。
很多都是在战争第一天就战死的,最小的 18 岁,有些没有名字。
看着墓碑上的的字,即使在里面走走,眼泪也会流出。
