Anyone who's followed me on here over the years knows my affinity for the 26th "Yankee" Division during World War I. This excellent post by @prof_warfield highlights issues of #warandmemory as well as concerns with the division's war monument in France.

Mass-produced as a memorial postcard: 'Hiraeth Cymru am Hedd Wyn' by J Kelt Edwards (1917). Reproduced in Peter Lord's Imaging the Nation which defines the female figure as 'symbolic of Welsh mourning' #warandmemory #FWW
