Honour the memory
This statue is located in the train station of Dakar-Niger to honour the memory of the ancestors, ve left Africa when Senegal was at war with the French. Since they did not have a good command of weapons, many died in the field. Some resisted the urge to throw a shot at the enemy, which is where the name "shooter" was given to African fighters of WWII. This site exhibits a part of African history and is the place to commemorate all the infantry soldiers and their African colleagues of arms in France: Demba and Dupont [/ I]
