Was riding thru Tamarind Grove and saw a menorah in the driveway on Newburn Lane-- the homeowner , told me it weighs 1000 lbs and is a tribute to the WWll allied soldiers who ended the holocaust--remarkable

Get in your car/cart and look @ it--Photos can't do it justice

Is it pure gold?

Looks like lot of bronze-if you're a vet you'll appreciate it

Thanks for sharing this info. After seeing the video clip, I can believe that photos don't do it justice. Some things, inanimate though they are, evoke great emotion, especially when seen in person - this seems to be one of those things.

Thanks goes to Gracie though for those of us who aren't there to see it in person. Video is better than nothing.

The 96 year old Major in the video was quite the hero, in the battle of Mortain, his unit consisting of 150 National guardsmen, from Tennessee, held off 12,000 Germans long enough, to stop them from flanking the Normady invasion--very critical

Wow. Thanks! Gotta check it out. Must be much nicer than the one that is surrounded by piles of stacked up chaIrs at LSL.

Just to add to my last post they had 4 lights lit on the LSL menorah today (Thurs) instead of the proper 3.

No, they had 4 lights PLUS shamos which was wrong. I never count the shamos.

That being said I visited the Tamarind location tonight and unfortunately it must be seen during the day since the lights on it were very dim and the house was very dark however it was quite a moving display. Sort of Reminded me of the Korean memorial in DC. I noticed each "candle" was a separate piece.
