My Grandfather is buried there.
Sanctuary Wood Museum的点评
点评：I first visited here in the 1980s as my Grandfather is buried here. His name is on the Menin Gate in Ypres and when there looking for his name we discovered books in the pillars which recorded names and addresses of the deceased. Someone had written in pencil that he was buried in Sanctuary Wood cemetery. Off we went and found his grave . Some years later we took my father to see his father’s grave a very moving day. My father was born in 1912 and his father was killed in May 1915 at Hill 62 Sanctuary Wood so he never knew his father. Strangely, my father was a bomb aimer in a Lancaster during the second world war and they were shot down in 1942 over Belgium and landed about half an hour from here, they all bailed out and landed safely. They were captured the next day and spent the rest of the war in Stalag Vlllb / 344 In Poland. I was born in 1941 so don’t remember my father until he came home in 1945.
My Grandfather had fought in the Boer War and was in the siege of Ladysmith.
Hope this is of interest to anyone visiting .

翻译：我第一次来这里是在上世纪80年代，因为我祖父葬在这里。他的名字刻在伊普尔的梅宁门上，我们在那里寻找他的名字时，在石柱里发现了记录逝者姓名和地址的册子。有人用铅笔写着他葬在圣地森林公墓。于是我们去了那里，找到了他的墓地。几年后，我们带父亲来祭拜他父亲的墓，那一天令人无比动容。我父亲生于1912年，他的父亲于1915年5月在圣地森林62号山阵亡，所以他从未见过自己的父亲。巧合的是，我父亲在二战期间是兰开斯特轰炸机的投弹手，他们于1942年在比利时上空被击落，降落在离这里大约半小时航程的地方，所有人都跳伞并安全着陆。第二天他们被俘，并在波兰的施塔拉格·沃伦/344战俘营度过了余下的战争岁月。我出生于1941年，所以直到1945年父亲回家之前，我对他没有任何印象。
我的祖父参加过布尔战争，也曾参与过莱迪史密斯围城战。
