Long Shadows

Mittelbau Dora 06/25

Sculpture of prisoners by sculptor Jürgen von Woyski in front of the crematorium at concentration camp Mittelbau Dora.

#photography #blackandwhite #concentrationcamp #silhouette #monochrome #dday #neveragain

A low, stylized sculpture of several figures, presented in a static, somber pose, stands in the center of a paved area.  The figures are positioned upright, facing slightly forward, and appear to be in a group. Their forms are somewhat abstracted, and the sculptor has minimized the differences within the figures. 

A simple brick building stands in the background, positioned slightly to the rear of the sculpture. Some trees and shrubs are visible in the background.

On the 81st anniversary of D-Day, a reminder: Canada’s assault on Juno Beach was part of a larger Allied effort, one that depended heavily on the Eastern Front.

Scenes from Bonus Army 2025 D-Day Veteran's protest at US Capitol

On June 6, 1944 the D-Day invasion of Nazi Germany smashed down the gates of Fascism in Europe.

On June 6, 2025 US military veterans gathered at the US Capitol bluntly condemning Donald Trump as a repeat of Adolf Hitler and all that the D-Day veterans fought against. The efforts by DOGE to privatize VA healthcare and generally throw veterans under the bus were singled out for a lot of attention by speakers.

It was pointed out however that in the past protests against similar proposals were never held on such anniversaries as D-Day or Pearl Harbor Day. This time around, the renewed Fascist menace of Donald Trump spurred Veterans to deliberately invoke D-Day for the Bonus Army of 2025.

The original Bonus Army camped on the Mall after FDR refused to pay delayed bonuses owed to WWI veterans due to the Depression. FDR had the Bonus Army fired upon with live ammunition instead of considering meeting their demands that old promises be kept.

Note that as a lifelong student of WWII history and given I see the current conflict in the US as an attempt by Fascists to refight WWII, D-Day is a very, very big deal to me as well and in fact this is one of the reasons I am in DC right now.
