"SEARCH AND DESTROY" - I know this one, because I asked our tour guide. It's part of a temporary art exhibition around the town. The artist noted the absence of the effects of war historically in Ghent (apparently the mayors in both World Wars just invited the Germans in on the agreement that they wouldn't damage anything!) and decided to include this American military strategy term as an installation outside the old meat market, so that Ghent would contain some reference to military history. Strange, isn't it?
