Hello!
This is my first post, so please be gentle (haha). My 3rd trip to Normandy, is in the planning stages. Specifically, to attend commemeration activities for the 65th Anniversary. Does anyone know a website or location to contact for an itinerary or agenda?
Thanks!!

Hi Lynne - I have seen nothing concrete announced yet. I suspect it will be this winter before any firm details are posted anywhere. When they are, we will be putting them here.

I will be there with my group of Vets and Durham Pals , if you are going think about Hotel booking now as many are booked solid already !!

regards

Paul

I'm hoping to get in at least two trips to Normandy next year, one of which will hopefully coincide with the commemorations.

My last battlefield trip for this year will commence next Thursday when I'll be going over to the Hurtgen Forest for a few days.

I have been talked in to going camping while there, which I haven't done since I was a kid, so I hope the weather is favourable and the bugs don't bite...

Wonderful information. I do have my lodging. Lovely little place I stayed at last year on the road between Bayeax and Aromanches. Secured it in April. My Dad was in the Pacific Theater, but for whatever reason, I am committed and driven to learn everything about D-Day and the remainder of the European War.
Looking forward to future chats, and perhaps meeting some of you next June.
