Hi To All,
Considered by the Canadians, Co-organizers with the City of Dieppe of the 75th anniversary celebrations of the Dieppe Raid, as more important than the next 80th anniversary of 2022 because it will be likely the last time that Canadian veterans will be able to travel to Dieppe (Less than 5 are expected from Canada this year when they were still more than 30 in 2012) the commemoration of the Operation Jubilee will be particularly important this year with a significant official international representation expected (Canadians, British, Americans, French, Belgians, Polish etc...)
By my side, I have already worked for the event with an active participation in the exhibition of the War Heritage Institute, at the Royal Museum of the Army and Military History of Brussels, "Tribute to a Raid" just inaugurated on last June 23rd in the presence of the Belgian Minister of Defense and the Deputy Mayor of Dieppe, for which I published a few days ago the following post:

Designed as an ephemeral museum and displayed with a neat scenography featuring dioramas of faithful period representations, made with mannequins striking of truth presenting various protagonists of the event,It's also multiple and scarce relics, Vets items & groupings, models, documents, photographs and period films that will be presented for what is probably today the most important collection dedicated to this event."

Last edition composed pictures to give an idea of the look of the exhibit
But also and only displayed this year, a second exhibition will be held at Sainte Marguerite sur Mer, in support of the "Orange Beach" commemoration, which will be special this year with the official laying of a commemorative plaque in memory of Captain Patrick Porteous, Officer of the N ° 4 Commando, for these acts of bravery on August 19, 1942 and the expected presence of the venerable "British Commando veteran Association", and maybe a ship of the Royal Navy cruising in front of Orange beach ... all this on 20 August at Sainte Marguerite su Mer village (20 km from Dieppe)
