Visit Kleines Engländerdenkmal (Eaton Cross), Schauinsland, Germany
Jack Eaton, father of one of the deceased students from Engländerdenkmal (Englishmen Memorial) disaster, had a stone cross erected at the spot where his son, Jack Alexander Eaton, had been found lifeless. This cross is locally known as "Kleines Engländerdenkmal", literally "Little Memorial to the English". It bears a German inscription on the mountain side, and an equivalent English inscription on the valley side. Eaton intended to add the line, "Their teacher failed them in the hour of trial", but this was disallowed, as the official version of the event exonerated the teacher.
