Nice photo, and probably make a damn sight more sense than taking orders from the politicians. I like it when the community or society involves kids in things. Sechselaueten in Zurich was an example, the kids have their day, as a preparation for the time when they take part in the adult parade. Too often kids are kept out of things and when they become adults it's all a big mystery

Do they open barracks one day in the year?

alice,
the open day was cancelled for the last two years due to soldiers had to assist in flooded areas.

the salems,
well, i didnt intend deeper meaning ;however what u mentioned is sad truth..

richard,
