Default burma railroad cemetary

As I said before here are some pictures of the cemetary in kanchanaburi thailand, this is near the bridge over the river kwai. on this cemetary are men from 6 different country's buried (some 1100 dutch are there to).
As you can see they are taken care of ferry well. As I walked arround I saw a some graves with the same last names as mine (at home I asked my familie and they where not related) The first picture of mr: M.P. de Wit was a engineer in the dutch navy, the same as me, is'nt that spooky to come across. I followed the railroad to the end by train and then you get a idear of the great scale they were working on. Also don't forget the asian workers who died working next to the P.O.W's. we most rember them to
