Normandy pics


Recommended Posts

A couple of days before W&P I went over to Normandy again with another delivery of tents for Dead Mans Corner.

 

On the way out it was so rough that I nearly had to use the sick bag. The SeaCat had been cancelled and we had to be moved from our berth with a tug - this was in Poole harbour for christ sake! I was expecting a quite journey but was full up:computerrage:

 

 

Mid channel I was understanding what the Russian convoys had to go through:bow:..........

 

Once I got to Normandy it was wonderful weather. After having made the delivery I head for Carentan for a beer, then to St Mere Eglise and then down to Utah for an ice cream. Sat on top of a bunker there and sent email around the world from my BlackBerry - life is strange....

 

 

The last picture - driving onto the ferry always reminds me of what the Mulberry harbours must of looked like.
