Thank you, Rick. Always appreciate getting more of the backstory.Concerning your post about the memorial for "My collaborators", it appears it was put there to remember the casualties of an accident during the construction of the Mirandol railway viaduct.

Small memorial for the soldiers of the Black Watch who fell during the attack on a nearby bridge in November 1944.
Not very far away is this small memorial for another fallen soldier and a young boy who was killed near this spot.
