How low we have fallen-----War memorial to be left blank for fear of mistakes

War memorial to be left blank for fear of mistakes - BBC News:
"A new war memorial will have no names inscribed on it in case errors are included.
The new installation will commemorate 40 soldiers from Tidworth, Wiltshire, who have died in battle since 1914.
Chris Franklin, town mayor, said the memorial committee's decision to "omit the names" seemed to be "purely based on it being too much of a risk".
...But Mr Franklin said "quite a bit of research" had already been done and adding the names later would be a "bit of a damp squib".
"We're coming up to Remembrance and the normal saying is - When you go home tell them of us and say: for your tomorrow we gave our today," he said.
"The clue there is 'tell them of us' - if there's no names they can't tell us."
The £130,000 granite memorial is due to be in place next year."
