The grave is not in the public domain, and all who do have access understand totally its relevence to the history books!
I agree, its not just the name of a dog, as it has a direct connection to the raid because of its use for successful breach of the Mohne.
As said, its a slippery slope, and this is obviously done in preparation for when the RAF vacate the site, and the grave will be then no longer be off limits to 'joe public'?
I hope that the original stone has not be destroyed, as that really would be a disgraceful.
I can remember as a child going with my Scottish Grandmother into a hardware shop in the days before big DIY stores opened up, when she asked for a tin of ***** Brown paint.
