I discovered recently that the German town of Trarbach was one of the victories for John Churchill during the Battle of Blenheim. I lived there for four years, and never saw any signs, or other objects commemorating the event.

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, it was a British victory.

Ok, but then i wouldn’t expect that they would erect something for the victor in the territory of the defeated.

I guess I’m more disappointed in the follower-ons of these brave men and their lack of consideration/behavior then I am about the details behind where/when. It just feels they’ve lost sight of the whole purpose.
