kpu121265 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Sometimes, a picture tells more than a thousand words ever can. I know this lad... It wasn't just a random photo. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kpu121265 Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 That is the son of a pal of mine who came out to see us while we were in Normandy. I have posted some of the pictures of our trip elsewhere and there is a whole web site filling up daily with them. The point really about this shot, is that this lad (and his brother) would never have come to Normandy had we not been out there, and his Dad come along to see my vehicles out there. I can assure you that this act, was entirely unprovoked or initiated. This was a spontaneous act by a young man who realised what he was visiting. Terry Janes, puts it very well on the attached link. http://www.thetroubleshooters.com/pt-today/d-day09-122.html I found the image very moving which i why i shared it with you. Of all the experiences and images we have of this trip (which was the best so far), this is probably my favourite. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
