visited the remnants of war ....still there 70 years later |
Bunkers on the Atlantic wall taken by the Brits...this is one at Asnelles-sur-mer overlooking Gold beach |
Paid respects at war memorials |
Discovered little known British graves in village church yards |
Visited sites of famous battle such as the taking of Pegasus Bridge by the British Airbourne |
Moved at the cemeteries ...this is Ranville |
another favourite place of mine..St Mere Eglise....notice the paratrooper hanging from the roof reflecting a real life event |
Saw lots of tanks |
Visited all the beaches...this is Dog Red on Bloody Omaha today.. |
More tanks...Bayeaux |
Visited the American cemetery at Colleville just above Omaha...you may recognise it from the opening scenes of Saving Private Ryan |
