As a former employee of Holmes in the late sixties , I too have visited the museum and it is indeed a treat. But the significance that you placed on the memorial is well placed. If you could see what a cable snapping under pressure can do to a piece of metal , it is indescribable what it can do to a human. Giving these brave souls a mention is commendable. I see this memorial a couple of times a week as I go about my semi busy life. It is sobering to see the annual gathering of these families as they offer prayers to those lost in the line of their duty to society

Thank you for your kind words. I enjoyed the museum much more than I thought I would. And, as you say, the memorial is very sobering.
It's nice to have you back!
