D-Day festivities for the 71th Anniversary of the Normandy landing beaches, June 2015
Every year the local people are invited to continue the bond shared between them and active duty soldiers. Parachuting jumps have been going on for a while around La Fiere, this year it’s on June 7th 2015. All the military that’s involved in the ceremonies and Drop Zone planning, flying aircraft and personnel etc will be staying in or around Sainte Mere Eglise.
My wife and I have been hosting soldiers (Americans for several years now) the object is to give them a delicious meal in typical Normandy home with local Norman food.
Tuesday 2nd June 2015
6 p.m.: Soldiers have dinner in local families.
