Oktoberfest - Part 5 - Kassel

Todd and Brent took the train north and headed to Kassel for a special trip. Beautiful scenery on the way up. Todd wanted to go and see his Great Great Uncle's Grave. He was a POW in The Great War and died from his wounds. He was shot in the spine and laid to rest in a POW cemetary near Kassel. It took them a while to find it but they did. He placed a Canadian and Saskatchewan flag as well as some Saskatchewan soil (Thanks Nicole). Bringing a little bit of home to Uncle Arnold.
