    Danielle,

    I will be in Normandy for the 6th June with a party of British Normandy veterans,

    Many services take palce on the 6th at cemetries such as Ranville,Bayeux and at Arromanches plus Omaha and other locations in the American sector , we will be at the Airborne cemetery at Ranville the servive there usually starts at around 10.30-11.00 am.

    other services take place over the next couple of days usually organised by Regimental Associations , it is probably best to keep checking visa the internet,

    Regards

    Paul

            I will be making my annual pilgrimage to Normandy also, I'll be there for some 10 days. I always start up near Ste. Mere Egliese and work my around to Caen. This year I'll be concentrating on the later battlefields near the Caen - Falaise road and the general "Pocket" area. If anyone is around would be nice to meet up. For your information there is also a a substantial militaria fayre in Ste Mere Eglise based in the cattle market, usually around the 5th June.

            Regards
